The final assignment

Look at page 16 in your booklet: 

During the last 5 lessons, you’ve seen a lot of news videos. Now that you’re a professional news reporter, you’re going to record your very own English news broadcast. This will be done in groups of 4/5, and you have 2 full lessons to finish this assignment. The video should be min. 3 and max. 5 minutes long. You can find a list of useful language on the last page of your booklet. 

News videos

Your news video should have a(n):

• Beginning: welcome the audience, explain what news item you're going to talk about (short introduction).
  
• Middle: reporter that is at the location of the event shows and explains the situation. You should also include an interview with someone, during which you talk about the news item.
  
• Ending: summarise what you talked about, thank your audience for watching.

Welcome to..

Step 1 

Look on the internet for an (English) article that you all find interesting. This can be about anything: sports, climate change, politics, anything that is happening in the world that you find interesting.

Step 2 

Decide who is going to do what:

The roles are as followed:

- 2 news reporters who are going to explain the news item: 1 person is at the location where your news is happening, 1 person is at the “studio” explaining the news.

- 1 interviewer, 1 interviewee (= someone who is being interviewed about the news item).

If you’re in a group of 5: 2 news reporters who are at the “studio”, 1 person who is at the location your news is happening.

Everyone has to be in the video, and everyone has to speak during the video.

Step 3 

Write a script – don’t forget to give your news broadcast a name! Decide: who is going to say what? You have to use the information from the article in your news video.

Lesson 6, today: step 1, 2 and 3 (p. 16)

Step 1: Find an English article

Step 2: Divide the roles (who is going to say what?)

Step 3: Write a script

Step 4 (lesson 7)

Record your news video. You’re allowed to use a piece of paper with your text on it, just make sure it doesn’t look like you’re reading from a piece of paper. Tip: use a PowerPoint with pictures to make the news broadcast look more real. 

Step 5 (lesson 7)

•  Everyone speaks during the video.
  
•  1 person is at the location where the news is happening.

•  1 person is interviewing someone.
  
•  1 person is being interviewed.

•  Your video has a beginning, middle (with explanation of the situation and a short interview) and ending.
