  1. Proposal for Video Production Club at Charleston High School Proposed by Dawn Drake English Teacher Charleston High School

  2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF PURPOSE OF PROPOSED CLUB/ACTIVITY: Trojan News would be a club dedicated to producing daily announcements and a weekly news show to be broadcast to the students and faculty of Charleston High School throughout the school year. GOAL(S) OF PROPOSED CLUB/ACTIVITY: 1.Provide CHS students with the opportunity to develop skills in writing, producing, filming, and editing a weekly news program. 2. Provide CHS students who are interested in careers in broadcasting and journalism the opportunity to participate in a “real world” activity that would develop the necessary skills they would need to pursue their future goals. 3. Provide CHS students the opportunity to collaborate with each other on a worthwhile project and eventually enter regional, state, or even national competitions in order to showcase their broadcasting skills.

  3. NEW CLUB/ACTIVITY PROPOSAL PERSON PRESENTING THE PROPOSAL: Name: Dawn Drake Club Sponsor Email Address: ddrake@charleston.k12.il.us Phone #217-639-5093 NAME OF PROPOSED CLUB/ACTIVITIES: Video Broadcasting Club “Trojan News”

  4. LIST AT LEAST SIX ACTIVITIES OR EVENTS STUDENTS WILL PARTICIPATE IN: 1. interviewing 4. editing news stories 2. writing news stories 5. anchoring the news program 3. filming news stories 6. marketing and publicizing the news program

  5. What type of area do the students need to meet in? Students will need to meet in a room designed for editing and broadcasting the news. (Some possible ideas would be the media center equipment room, the former AER room in the basement, the small conference room near the media center, the back two alcoves in the English Department’s book room, or if nothing else, the back corner of my classroom in room 400.)

  6. When and how often do you intend to meet? The club would most likely meet daily after school from 3:30-5:00. However, there may be students who participate in other activities who could not make daily meetings on account of conflicts in their schedules. I would be flexible in working with students before school, lunch, or even weekends. It would not take all members being present every single day in order to create the news broadcast.

  7. What will it cost to operate the proposed club/activity? I found the company below at the School Video News Website: http://www.school-video-news.com/ This company offers information on what a startup budget would look like for the type of club I am proposing. www.dig-ed.com

  8. Why do you think there is an interest in this proposed club or activity? Our high school is in a university community where support for news, broadcasting, speech and drama, radio broadcasting, and the arts is enhanced. Students in our building are excellent communicators and enjoy working with technology. Our community has produced some important personalities in media broadcasting.

  12. My vision for this club is one of school pride and unity. All classes and groups in the school could benefit by sharing their FFA projects, artwork, history and science projects, poetry, athletic performances, speech and drama competitions, culinary creations, and so much more!

  13. The Youtube video at the bottom of this slide is a sample high school news broadcast to give you an idea of the type of production I would like to get started here at CHS. High school broadcasting clubs such as Eagle High School have opportunities to broadcast worldwide, enter competitions, travel to conferences and summer camps across the nation, and to receive recognition for outstanding broadcasting productions.
