Big Brothers Big Sisters' Kid Reporters attend
Akaku's Young Reporters Media Camp
Big Brothers Big Sisters recently joined with Akaku: Maui Community Television, to enhance the knowledge of Big Brothers Big Sisters' Kid Reporters, by providing an opportunity for them to learn about being a reporter at Akaku's Young Reporters Media Camp.
Big Brothers Big Sisters Kid Reporters learned what it takes to become "Youth Reporters" for the Maui Daily-Akaku's latest community-based news program, and how to report on important happenings out in the their communities. In five days, the kid reporters became "youth certified" learning how to edit, create content/outlines for TV programs, enhancing interviewing skills and simple video taping techniques.
"The Young Reporters Media Camp was a great success and proved to be an enriching opportunity for young people who are interested in serving their community through their media skills. Young people are some of the most valuable witnesses to current events and happenings around Maui. Their perspectives will diversify the Maui Daily programming and attract more young viewers to the show," says Education Director Sara Tekula of Akaku: Maui Community Television.
