Are you ready to step into the exciting world of sports broadcasting? The Sports Broadcasting Camp offers students a unique, hands-on experience covering live sporting events.
Throughout the camp, students will dive into every aspect of a live broadcast, including:
- Running a broadcast production truck
- Operating cameras and capturing the action
- Managing replay, graphics, and audio
- Understanding broadcast engineering
- On-camera reporting and storytelling
The camp's highlight is Game Day, where students will put their skills to the test by producing a live broadcast of a soccer match between Seaholm High School and Brother Rice High School. From behind the scenes to the anchor desk, students will play a vital role in bringing the game to life.
The final day of camp is a Wrap Party, where students will watch their broadcast replay, celebrate their achievements, and enjoy a special lunch together.
Dress Code: Must wear proper crew attire of black polo shirt and black jeans. No yoga pants.
Lunch: Bring a brown bag lunch each day, except for the Wrap Party on the final day.
