back to menuWhat is Broadcast Journalism?
Broadcast journalism is a hugely rewarding, exciting and demanding round-the-clock career. News can happen any time, any place, live on air. Reporters and presenters tell huge numbers of people about something which is happening now in their back yard or on the other side of the planet. Producers and editors make split-second decisions while millions of people are watching or listening. But sometimes broadcast journalists have to work long and hard to find and explain stories, which are destined to disappear into the ether after their appearance on your radio, television, computer, or mobile phone. The industry needs performers, but it also needs writers and thinkers. It needs people who are prepared to spend minutes crafting scripts which will be read out in seconds. At Up To Speed you can learn Video Journalism and also audio skills. We also teach you how to find, research, write and produce news. Our NCTJ qualifications are highly sought after in Broadcast Journalism.
