Excerpt from the UCSD Digital Arts Center Course Catalog: TV and Internet digital video news organizations are always looking for stories and features that are produced and generated by the general public. In this eight-week workshop, students will learn just how to do that. Topics include how to choose topical news and entertainment stories, write the story, and how to effectively and professionally complete the process of video production, post-production, uploading, and distribution of digital news videos.
