The International Center for Journalists (ICFJ), with the support from the U.S. Consulate General in Hyderabad, India, hosted the “Workshop for Bloggers on Global Issues and Challenges,” in January 2015. The program was offered to support media professionals and bloggers in the dynamic locale of Hyderabad to illustrate the impact of international issues on the daily lives of their local readership and India’s broader development objectives. ICFJ’s partner in Hyderabad was the Administrative Staff College of India (ASCI).

This course was open to journalists, bloggers, communications professionals, and students. It was designed for anyone who wants to learn to tell compelling video stories – a key skill for media and communications jobs. The course covered the basics of shooting and editing a video story.
