This is the blog for our Ethics and Regulatory Frameworks module presentation. We're looking into how internet TV might transform local TV and local radio news. On this blog are our research notes, meeting notes and other things that we'll use to put together a spiffing 15-minute presentation on February 7th.

Presentation meeting 2 notes

Hello all,
just a reminder of what we decided at the last meeting.

The official presentation title is "How can internet TV transform local radio and TV news?"

Basic presentation structure:-

PART ONE
How local radio and TV are reaching their audiences right now.

PART TWO
What possibilities exist in internet TV

PART THREE
The future:- what do a) local news programme-makers; b) advertisers; and c) audiences want from their local news, and how could/will internet TV fit in to that?

Areas we've agreed to research this week:-
Sue and Beth - what exists in internet TV at the moment? Internet-only TV channels eg. Doughty Street; YouTube and other user-generated content; streaming on the web; posting video clips to websites etc etc.

Cat - how local TV is reaching its audiences right now. Focussing on Cornwall/South West, but considering other local TV in the UK/internationally.

Tom - As for Cat, but how local radio is reaching its audiences right now.

NEXT MEETING - Thursday17th Jan after the Newsroom session with Charlotte.

Please can everyone post their research notes on the blog as and when they have something?

Yay!

Blog meeting

Wow - Cat you have done so much, thank you. Look forward to our meeting on Friday!

Our presentation plans

Hello happy bloggers

meeting this Friday afternoon after the law exam to plan our ethics + regulation presentation further. I re-read the original handout last night and saw that our real presentation topic is on internet tv and local news, not new media generally. Doh!!
I'll post the official title and description from Charlotte's handout to this blog a bit later today so we all know where we are.
