2. Studio Newsreaders
• Studio news readers are the presenters which stay
at the desk inside the studio. They read the news
from here, and talk to other presenters who may be
out of the building on site using live chat (with
webcams) Studio newsreaders must make sure to
use eye contact when talking, and are very clear.
3. Field Reporters
• Field Reporters (on-site reporters) are the ones that
go to on-site locations to show is happening, or for
an interview with someone to do with the news
stories of the day. They are an analyst or a side line
reporter. They provide additional coverage so you
have additional reporters to compliment the main
reporter.
4. Links to Studio
• This means when presenters in the U.K (for example)
connect live to other presenters internationally. They
do this in shows such as The Eurovision song contest.
They connect between country's to get updates
and news.
5. Mode of Address to
Viewer
• The modes of address used by texts within a code
are influenced by three factors:
textual context: the conventions of the genre and of a
specific syntagmatic structure;
social context (e.g. the presence or absence of the
producer of the text, the scale and social
composition of the audience, institutional and
economic factors); and
technological constraints (features of the medium
employed)
6. Interviewing
• Interviewing is when a member of the news team,
will either have someone in the studio, or they have
gone out them selves to where the interviewee (the
person being interviewed) will be. They do this to
find out personal opinions, or first hand information
on something to do with the story in the news that
day.
7. Experts and Witnesses
• Experts: When they have a specialist in something,
this may be in a sport, or anything that can involve
skill or knowledge, someone who knows a lot on the
subject.
• Witness: A person who has seen in person
someone/something or an event. This could be a
murder, etc…
8. Report Structure
• Report structure is how you want your report to be
built, like how it is set our. Basic reports will include
an Introduction, Contents, Main body, and
Conclusion. Reports can be on anything.
9. Actuality Footage
• Actuality footage is a non-fiction film/tv genre that
like the documentary film uses footage of real
events, places, and things, yet unlike the
documentary is not structured into a larger
argument, picture of the phenomenon or coherent
whole.
