Final story pitches

Dean Baquet

overview

Pitches for your final project are due today. You'll present two pitches on two different topics. Then, with feedback from the class, you'll choose one as your final project topic.


We'll review any final questions before our in-class interviews begin next week. Remember, you must have your cameras ON for both interviews.

Workshop

  • While workshopping pitches, consider: Does the pitch state the problem clearly? Does it have a central investigative question that can be answered with evidence? Is it written in language that's active (not passive) and specific (not abstract)?
