PeoPo Video Workshop strengthens reporting skills

Each year, PeoPo Citizen Journalism Platform hosts a two-day video workshop, inviting citizen journalists with basic video production skills to come and learn more advanced shooting and writing skills.

This year, teachers led students to "San-Chong Village No.1" to discuss the culture of military dependents’ villages in Taiwan. Inside the massive park, students were given a guided tour to learn about the history and culture of the village and experience the underground tunnels, providing them with plenty of interesting topics to report on.

After a short half-day’s filming, the participants were asked to complete their report within a limited time. A 12-year-old citizen journalist worked alongside other participants on this challenge to shoot and edit a video report in lighting time. After completing the challenge, the room was full of laughter as participants presented their finished reports and shared what they had learned from the workshop.

PeoPo公民新聞平台每年都會舉辦兩天一夜的影音工作坊，邀請有影像拍攝基礎的公民記者參與，學習更進階的影音拍攝及寫稿技巧。並由專業的老師親自帶領學員走出戶外拍攝。

老師帶領學員們來到空軍三重一村探討眷村文化，在偌大的園區內，學員透過導覽解說認識眷村歷史文化及體驗戰備甬道，從中尋找自己有興趣的主題進行拍攝。

經過短短半天的拍攝，學員們必須在有限的時間內做出完整的報導，年僅12歲的小小公民記者也與一般學員們一同來挑戰快拍快剪的關卡。學員完成時間壓力的挑戰後，成果發表會上笑聲滿滿，也各自分享自己的收穫。
