YouTube offers journalism fellowship for video journalists September 17, 2008
Posted by Jonathan Hewett in : Journalism, citizen journalism, video , trackbackAn opportunity for aspiring video journalists:
In partnership with the Pulitzer Center, YouTube presents Project: Report, a journalism contest (made possible by Sony VAIO & Intel) intended for non-professional, aspiring journalists to tell stories that might not otherwise be told.
In each of the three rounds, reporters will be given an assignment to complete. Winners of each round will receive technology prizes from Sony VAIO & Intel, and the grand prize winner will be granted a $10,000 journalism fellowship with the Pulitzer Center to report on a story abroad.
The assignment for the first round is to profile someone “in your community with a story you think the world should know about”. Max three minutes, deadline 5 October.
The contest home page includes a few resources, including video shooting and editing tips.
