The idea is to create a coordinated story experience, or transmedia storytelling, in which each medium or channel plays a specialised role and does what it does best. This approach requires its own lenses and mental models and specific writing skills.
This module provides participants with an introductory understanding of writing for media and application for different forms of digital multimedia - how each is separate yet can be integrated. Participants will be equipped with the skill sets to navigate, write and tailor their message for each platform.

- Propose, write and present an integrated news story using 3 elements of multimedia
- Engage consumers and viewers, and ensure impact through the writing styles used in different media environments
