Medfield Cable Access TV
Medfield TV Workshops for Students Begin September 13th
Category: Kids -- Subcategory: News
Medfield.TV is pleased to announce that it will be hosting a workshop on sports broadcasting in conjunction with Young Broadcasters of America four times this fall and winter. In order to cover all local sports teams at the High School, The Medfield Cable Access channel uses volunteer announcers and camera people. This is a great way to train volunteers while promoting an interest in broadcast communication.
Four six-hour sessions are scheduled at for an Introduction to Broadcast Communication workshop that will be taught by YBA instructors. The first session begins September 13 and continues Mondays through the 27th. Session II runs October 4, 18, and 25, a third session will be held in November on the first through 15th and the last session will be on November 29, and December 6 and 13. All workshops will be held at the Medfield.TV studio in the Medfield High School on Mondays from 4-6 PM Jimmy Young, formerly of NECN, WBZ-TV 4 and WGME-TV in Portland Maine, founder and President of YBA said "We are excited to come to Medfield because parents in that community are always looking to give their kids an edge and we can provide that for them with our exclusive oral communication curriculum. Basically we teach generation text how to communicate using TV broadcast skills." The workshops will include delivering the broadcast script using YBA's I.P.I.E curriculum for voice articulation, inflection, pronunciation, intonation and enunciation. It also will teach proper use of the teleprompter, techniques for interviewing, how to host their own shows and studio announcing. In the words of Young, "In an era where young people are more comfortable communicating through technology rather than face to face, we use the TV camera to show them how the world sees and hears them. Think ESPN Sportscenter for Kids or Entertainment Tonight for Kids by Kids." For information on fees and registration, interested persons should use the YBS website: www.youngbroadcastersofamerica.com or www.Medfield.tv.
