Welcome to Bugema University - E-Learning Platform.

Introduction to Broadcasting is a course designed to foster positive learning experiences while teaching the basic production techniques both behind and in front of the camera. The course is designed to involve students in the technological environment of both live and recorded video productions. It is a hand on course that involves high energy and active participation of the students working under time constraints of production deadlines for news packages and videos, and aid in production of announcements. Students will learn: proper camera framing, video editing, the main elements of news packages and how to put one together, shot sequences, on air performance, how to effectively produce a school broadcast, how to operate the Tricaster and cameras, ingesting graphics into the Tricaster, how to produce a show using a virtual set, and operating Canon Rebel t3is. The class is designed to provide the necessary knowledge to run the school’s equipment and produce both independent productions and the daily announcements that are aired over the closed circuit TV system of the school and Promethean boards. The class will provide practical knowledge for the student as well as problem solving skills, teamwork, and showcase creativity. This class serves as the entry course to the broadcasting pathway. Students will be expected to be active  participants in all aspects of the productions and will be responsible for producing and keeping on record a portfolio of all their work for each segment of the school year. Portfolios will include written assignments, video or audio recordings of independent productions, video or audio recordings of closed circuit broadcasts, and any aspect of a production that they are  involved with. Portfolios will be checked at the end of every 9 weeks to make sure they are current and accurately reflect the volume and quality of the student’s work. Students are required to obtain a storage device and head phones.
