How is reporting for video and the web different from reporting for print?
It's easy to envision a 15-inch news story — what facts and figures to use, who you need to quote. But it's hard to see exactly where a video is going when you start.
Also, in a print story, you can "paint a picture" and set up scenes if the situation calls for it — in a video, though, the situation always calls for it.
Which medium is more powerful?
Video can be, but it doesn't have to be the most impactful. You can do a lot with print that just doesn't translate to video, but sometimes you just need that image, that story told by the person it happened to, to send the point home.
And you think you can do that?
No. Absolutely not.
