Disclaimer: I tried to upload the video we shot with the mobile kit of me and the file I exported couldn’t be uploaded onto this blog, sad day. It is linked below and is an accurate representation of Angela and I failing miserably at trying to handle technology but we had fun and did learn a little about using the kit. However, we did have issues with the mic and couldn’t get it to work for some reason.

Digital journalism is more about how the news is distributed via the internet to audiences through the use of websites, etc. to view new stories. It is a newer form of journalism in comparison with traditional news media such as print or broadcast.

Mobile journalism is an even more advanced of digital journalism. It is more about how the content is created because it has to do with the process the journalist goes through and the means by how they acquire the media (photographs, audio and video).

The mobile kits we use in class allow us to be mobile journalists because we can always capture content which we could include in stories we create and there are a lot of different assets we could use from the media we shoot on our mobile kits. The use of Apple Products is key in capturing mobile media and the different technology devices the company continue to create in terms of IOS systems is the face of mobile journalism.
