 The International Media Institute of India opened its doors July 5 in the Delhi suburb of Noida for 30 students from all over India and abroad.
The multimedia curriculum stretches from the fundamentals of journalism through audio, video, web and mobile phone news production.
"We've been lucky enough to assemble an amazing group of students," says academic director David Bloss. The roster includes working journalists from India's major cities as well as freshmen reporters from the tribal areas, with everything in between.
Nearly one month in, students are immersed in the basics of news writing at the same time they are learning to shoot video and master Final Cut Pro. The intensive tackle-everything-at-once approach is intended to teach them how to handle multiple challenges at one time--essential skills for any newsroom.
