Description:

Broadcast Journalism

A summer paradise nestled in the San Bernardino Mountains in Southern California, Pali Overnight adventures offers a once-in-a-lifetime camp experience! Reporters will learn how to write stories, read on camera, do stand-up reports on location, work from an anchor desk and use cue cards.

On the technical end, campers are taught camera operation and lighting. Every week, kids will produce newscasts for the entire camp and get the thrill of watching themselves on screen; they will also take home a DVD of their broadcasts.

In addition to the glitz and glamour of being on TV, campers will learn about journalism ethics, interviewing techniques and how to use hidden cameras and microphones (for investigative stories). These future TV journalists are also taught editing techniques, including blue screen. They will also learn in-studio camera moves and how to create cool graphics as seen on network news.
