Produce podcast/film/written piece on journalism over time and future trends with comprehensive research focused on a set medium (TV, radio, podcast, digital, AI)
Notes:
Focus on TV as the medium
Produce a film
TV has human connection and can make viewers feel empathy as they can see and hear what is happening.
TV is emotive and also allows for more context
Show don't tell
Global awareness
Maybe sports coverage, like F1 broadcasts and reporting over time and what I think the future will be like
Maybe something comedic to show how it used to be and how I expect it to be, like a re-enactment
Visual storytelling, research how this is done on in TV journalism
Or digital news, and how anyone can be a journalist, the easy accessibility
What social media has done for journalism
Fake news and the harm it poses, with examples of how fake news has caused chaos
How is digital news funded, corruption, making money from journalism on social media, advertising's place in funding social media
Mediums that are easier to consume information
1974-2024-2074 maybe do 3 separate segments
Don't be too descriptive, story tell visually
How streaming is killing-off live TV
5-10 minutes film
1960s is when TV was very common, research the 1970s and TV ownership to see how many people had access to this medium
Interviewees could be: Broadcaster, reporter, news anchor, presenter
Now TV is a commonality
Now anyone can do anything with their phone, make a film, make a podcast, anything
'What happened?' 'I don't know' 1974 news broadcast skit, shows issues
