ABSTRACT
You may find yourself in charge of pretty much every aspect of an audio or video bulletin, or work as a two-person team of presenter and cameraperson, the one handling the camera usually being responsible for editing and publishing the finished bulletin. It is common for one multimedia journalist to identify potential stories and follow them up by conducting interviews – on video or audio as appropriate – and either taking or sourcing still photographs. You’ll edit the material down to the required length (most online bulletins are around three minutes long), write the script and put the whole package together. You may present the bulletin live, but it is much more likely to be recorded.
