A new training programme is to be launched in Liverpool next month to help potential broadcasters from journalists to up-and-coming filmmakers, develop their skills.
Taking place at the Novas Contemporary Urban Centre, the courses will show off the latest technology and give the ‘students’ hands-on training.
 Video journalist The week-long courses start on 15 February with HDV digital cameras and basic cinematic storytelling. Following a week of HD digital production, there’s a fortnight for reporters and photojournalists looking to produce video for television and online.
The scheme is a joint venture between Workshops International in the USA and The Centre for Creative Media in the UK. "People are veering away from the traditional methods of accessing news and media and are now consuming this information through new digital mediums such as online video streaming," explained Creative Media’s Kate Robinson. "As a result, journalists are required to not only write a story but also produce films and photographs without any formal training, and this is where our workshops can really help. Media professionals and people working in the film and TV industry will benefit greatly from the hands-on approach taken in the workshops. Our workshop programmes combine state-of-the-art technical training and creativity to satisfy real commercial objectives."To book, visit their website.
