Participants will learn to develop feature ideas, recognise and apply different types of features, use narrative and descriptive writing techniques, plan research, handle complex information and much more.
So you feel it's time to "spread your wings" and explore the possibilities of more ambitious forms of writing? Or perhaps you have begun working in features and would like to develop your skills further? Then this is the course you should attend.
Participants will need to have at least one-year's experience in a newsroom, and be familiar with hard-news writing. Although the course will focus on the traditional feature format, the techniques taught can be used in hard news and other formats, too.
