Media Training 101

"Media Training" means different things to different people in different contexts. This workshop covers the basic and maps the lay of the land. We start with an overview of the variety of media one is likely to encounter in our work, how they are similar and how they are different. We then look at what we think of as a portfolio of media skills - being interviewed live and not, crafting a press release, responding to requests for interviews, the special case of student/campus media outlets, what you can expect your "media person" to accomplish for you. The hands-on portion of the workshop will include a simulation exercise where teams craft a message and are interviewed by actual reporters.
