What does it take to be a citizen reporter? Much like citizen journalists, reporters often concentrate on local events and news stories that are not covered by the media. While they may not have any formal training, citizen reporters often add a fresh perspective and provide viewers with interesting stories they may have otherwise missed. How do you become a citizen reporter? No classes or training is required. All you need is a curious mind, a mobile phone that can capture video, and access to the internet. You may also have to download a video posting application like motioncast video . This app will give you the ability to post your news stories with video on the internet. Local or community news stories can include anything that you believe is news worthy. Since many sites like MotionCast do consider themselves news sites, it is important to post something that has merit. If you want to post something silly, it will likely be rejected.
After all, there are literally dozens of video sharing sites on the net for entertainment videos. These sites are different because they concentrate on local news in an effort to better inform the public. Therefore, if you are interested in posting or casting a story, make certain that it is relevant. Popular news casts tend to focus on stories about local emergencies, politics, and general news stories. On rare occasions, sites will accept less news worthy material like celebrity sightings or entertainment news. But if you really want to be considered a citizen journalist, it is always a good idea to focus on important local issues first.
