For Print journalists:

As India’s newspapers build strong online and social platforms, journalists need to create platform-specific versions of their stories for their print audience, and for the more diverse audiences available to them online. This includes images and multimedia, and it also means understanding how writing for online differs from print, and how to write well for your website and for each of your social platforms. 

This intensive one-day workshop with former BBC journalist Corinne Podger will help you improve your approach to content creation for the web and social media, and introduce you to cutting-edge innovations from South Asia and globally on getting the most from digital for storytelling and as a source of journalism revenue. You will also be introduced to useful tools and resources to help you evolve as a digital storyteller into the future.

For Broadcast journalists:

Television and radio stations are becoming more and more like print outlets in the digital age, needing to create strong text versions of their broadcast stories for online and social platform audiences.  This intensive one-day workshop with former BBC journalist Corinne Podger will help you re-version video and audio stories for the web and social media platforms, and write more effectively for your digital audiences.

You will receive guidance on how to promote your broadcast content online and via social, and how to support broadcast multimedia with great images and clear, accessible text. You will also be introduced to cutting-edge digital-first journalism by broadcasters across South Asia and around the world, and to useful tools and resources on innovation to help you evolve as a digital storyteller into the future.
