MD332 Assessment 1 Brief: Podcast Group Project Guidelines | Maynooth University
MD332 ASSESSMENT 1 BRIEF.
- For the first half of this module students will be assessed based on a small-group (3 people: producer, presenter, researcher, editor – you decide the roles) podcast (5 minutes, with 20 second leeway each way) recording.
The recording will include:
- A scripted introduction about any sector of media work that the student group wants to cover.
- A short interview with a worker from the sector profiling how they entered media work, their ongoing career development, how they suggest students get work in that sector.
- A scripted conclusion that articulates some key points about the sector based on what we have heard in the interview or learned about in class AND that refers to at least 2 points from 2 readings we covered in the module.
- Any other creative elements that students wish to use such as music, archive, sound effects etc.
