COM 344 - Sports Media Production

Institution:

Bryant University

Subject:

Description:

Session Cycle: Fall Yearly Cycle: Every Other Covering a live sporting event is one of the most dynamic forms of video-mediated communication. The pace is fast, the narrative largely unscripted, and creative and editorial decisions must be rapid fire. This course uses sports broadcasting as a platform for confronting the challenges of live, remote production. Classroom instruction is reinforced by hands-on experience, as students work in production groups to create network-style, multi-camara broadcasts of Bryant athletic events. Rotating through various roles and responsibilities, students develop skills in multi-camera directing; field production; video editing; writing; reporting; announcing; and special effects. Also, students learn how to identify, shape and present the narrative (story) elements of public events as they unfold. (Note: students must be available for the broadcast of three Saturday afternoon games during the semester). 3.000 Credit Hours 3.000 Lecture hours Levels: Undergraduate Schedule Types: Lecture College of Arts and Sciences Undergraduate Division Communication Department Course Attributes: Communication Concentration, Communication Minor, Liberal Arts Elective, Communication Major
