A definition of journalism: The art of compression

Why preference for iMovie?
• 144,000 hours per day loaded on YouTube• How to make your video stand out?• Quality stands out
• Editing creates quality (in all media)• Integrates beautifully with iPhone: only
device with apps that allow two video editing tracks (see next slide)
• Journalists already familiar their iPhone

Why the iPhone?• Only smartphone with apps that give TWO
video editing tracks, plus ability to save in full HD (1080 or 1920) without watermarks, and free with iOS devices since 5S
• KineMaster app for Android permits 2 video tracks for some devices but cannot save in full HD, and you must pay to remove the watermark. In some cases you must pay to get second edit track 10

MOJO IS COOL! BUT ISSUES
![Page 15: MOJO: MOBILE JOURNALISM - WordPress.com · 2015-04-01 · • Mojo: Mobile Journalism in the Asian Region (Konrad Adenauer Foundation) • Appeared December 2009 • Third edition](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042301/5ecc2b269099f5198e4f371f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Good and bad of the iPhoneGOOD• Easy to use• Discreet• Always connected• Public accepts them• Cool apps
BAD• Lens must be clean• Battery life sucks• Data charges• Expensive• Tempting for thieves
Security issues
![Page 16: MOJO: MOBILE JOURNALISM - WordPress.com · 2015-04-01 · • Mojo: Mobile Journalism in the Asian Region (Konrad Adenauer Foundation) • Appeared December 2009 • Third edition](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042301/5ecc2b269099f5198e4f371f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Camera quality improving
• iPhone 3GS = standard definition (SD)• iPhone 4 = high definition (HD2: 720)• iPhone 4S = full HD (1080)
– For stills, 4S: 8 megapixel camera (compared with 5 megapixel in iPhone 4)
• iPhone 5 = full HD video (1080)• iPhone 6 = full HD video (1080 or 1920*)

* Depends on apps you use

Some history and theoryPhD: relationship between innovation, technology and how journalists adopt tools2 key adoption factors1. Easy to use (must not
hinder storyteller role). Reverse also applies: If difficult to use tools will be rejected (JasJam 2008)
2. Perception tools will speed up the newsgathering process (deadlines)

IT GETS EVEN COOLER WHEN WE USE APPS AND
EDIT ON THE iPHONE

WELCOME TOTHE MOJO REVOLUTION
Mojo means you can make broadcast quality videos with only an iPhone and some relatively inexpensive apps
![Page 22: MOJO: MOBILE JOURNALISM - WordPress.com · 2015-04-01 · • Mojo: Mobile Journalism in the Asian Region (Konrad Adenauer Foundation) • Appeared December 2009 • Third edition](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042301/5ecc2b269099f5198e4f371f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Range of mojo apps / options
• Simple (iPhone): Google Capture• Simple (other smartphones): bambuser.com• Sophisticated: Voddio (not updated since late
2013), Pinnacle Studio and iMovie 2.0• Secret recording: TS Video

Simplest mojo: Video via email
• iPhone camera: stills + video via email• Both use contacts database in your iPhone
(intelligent software adds rest of address)• Keep video clips under 20-25 seconds if
planning to send via email

6 parts to mojo process
1. preparation2. shooting3. editing (key to quality)4. narration / audio 5. captions6. uploading
![Page 26: MOJO: MOBILE JOURNALISM - WordPress.com · 2015-04-01 · • Mojo: Mobile Journalism in the Asian Region (Konrad Adenauer Foundation) • Appeared December 2009 • Third edition](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042301/5ecc2b269099f5198e4f371f/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
1. Preparation / research
• iPhone/iPad fully charged / recharge device• Transmit? Wifi device / 4G / wifi at location?
• What is your story? / Research your story• Arrange interviews? / style?• Logistics / travel (Google Maps)• Duration of video? Plan your shots
![Page 27: MOJO: MOBILE JOURNALISM - WordPress.com · 2015-04-01 · • Mojo: Mobile Journalism in the Asian Region (Konrad Adenauer Foundation) • Appeared December 2009 • Third edition](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042301/5ecc2b269099f5198e4f371f/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
2. Shooting (on location)• Plan your shots
– Establishing shot (long shot) / title / sign?• Stills and video
– Review both soon after! Delete the crap• Interview style (use tripod?)• Piece to camera? If so, where?• Overlays / cutaways (aka B roll)?• Duration?
Strategy: Shoot to edit!
![Page 28: MOJO: MOBILE JOURNALISM - WordPress.com · 2015-04-01 · • Mojo: Mobile Journalism in the Asian Region (Konrad Adenauer Foundation) • Appeared December 2009 • Third edition](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042301/5ecc2b269099f5198e4f371f/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Tips when shooting video• Resist urge to pan and tilt• Keep camera steady; let action come to you
– eg use escalators; wait at access points• Make body a tripod: Lock elbows into body• Sound is important
– interviews: get close if no external mic to improve audio quality
– need to use mic if outside (windsock)

3. Editing (on location!)
• Opening image!• Opening animated gif?• Duration?• Storyboard• Closing image!• Credits
Tip: Shoot to edit!
![Page 31: MOJO: MOBILE JOURNALISM - WordPress.com · 2015-04-01 · • Mojo: Mobile Journalism in the Asian Region (Konrad Adenauer Foundation) • Appeared December 2009 • Third edition](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042301/5ecc2b269099f5198e4f371f/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
A quick news story• On location, interview your main character• Cutaways based on key parts of interview• Edit interview, inserting cutaways at
relevant points– Note that only video can be used for cutaways,
not photos• Add title, name supers and credits and
publish to web

4. Voice-over (quiet place)
• Will you script a voice-over, and/or use music, and/or natural sound, and/or interview?
• If voice-over, insert in discreet blocks– Easier to fit words around pix than vice versa– Fastest is to write script after editing pix, then
adjust pictures• Short phrases (3 words / second)• Practise before you record!
– Needs quiet place

5. Headline and captions
• Headline to start. (Remember you have no anchor intro) Possibly use still of sign or logo
• Identify all interviewees• Credits at end: insert “Produced by Your
Name” over 4 seconds of nice image• Might need to subtitle interviewee/s if they
are non-native speakers

6. Upload
• Upload via wifi*– YouTube or Vimeo?– Vimeo Professional costs about
£165 a year• Copy embed code from
YouTube and/or Vimeo, and paste code into your blog
• Save to AirStash (SanDisk) as backup
* If you upload via wifi you can send larger files than via 4G

File management
• You can never be too rich, too thin or have enough memory on your iPhone– Good reason to delete all the crap files
• If serious about mojo, buy an Airstash or SanDisk to store your files
