Broadcast Journalism Alumni Highlights: Inauguration and NY Trade Show Coverage

January 23, 2017

New York Film Academy Broadcast Journalism grad George Colli was in the middle of all the activity taking place in Washington, DC last week. First, the Cox Media Group correspondent covered the inauguration of the 45th President of the United States, Donald Trump, starting early on Friday morning. The next day he covered the Women’s Rights March organized by a number of women’s groups.

In other Broadcast Journalism alumni news, recent graduate Amanda Salvato had her first freelance assignment recently, reporting on a major retail-industry trade show taking place in New York. As her client is a Brazilian company, the story is in Portuguese. But even if you don’t know what she is saying, the story still looks great.

Amanda was kind enough to write: “Once I finished my first video I was very happy, tired but very proud of myself, and I also thought about all the things I learned at NYFA. I want to share my video with you… and to thank you and the school teachers for all the teaching and patience with me 🙂  I am a MULTIMEDIA JOURNALIST thanks to you!”
