Grit is a reporter for Deutsche Welle’s “Made In Germany” and loves to go on ships. She told me what is so special and challenging about being a reporter on a ship, right before she went on a tug boat!
The mini-interview is part of a #MadeInGermany special on Hamburg (#MadeInHamburg). Here is the entire show: http://dw.de/p/1EK77
I produced this video for Stiftung Warentest (compare to “Which?” (UK) or “Consumer Reports” (USA) during my traineeship, where I spent three months in the Press Office.
I was fascinated by how many steps a single product went through during tests and also by the kind of tests that were done. I wanted to give people an idea what a product goes through during the tests. What better way than to tell the story from the Point of View of the product itself?

I authored this video during an internship at Südwestrundfunk, a public broadcaster in Mainz.
There’s also a German script
Last Monday, I started a reporter internship at SWR Landesschau Rheinland-Pfalz, a local (statewide) newsy TV show with a human touch at public broadcaster Südwestrundfunk (I’ve been working with them for two years now).
It’S been incredibly hard for me as – what other people would call a “digital native” to actually do online stuff within that week, but that’s another story.
For now, here are some of the best tips I gathered during the last week among authors, editors and camera people that I wanted to record: Continue reading
Day two of my little experiement. The camera is still crappy video and it really needs a wide angle.
I’ve added a planning calendar to the equation and I’m starting to collect recipes! I’m hyped about all the recipes I can get, so let me know if you have a got one. Simply post it here or anywhere else and I’ll try it 🙂
This time, I’ve added a fade-in and fade-out, getting myself back into the basic functions of Adobe Premiere. Also, thanks to Filiz, I have found a Codec that works for YouTube with the Nokia 5800 XPressMusic. It’s the H264!

Well, maybe not quite yet! But I’m working on it! Meanwhile, check out this interview with me. FIUTS is the Foundation of International Understanding at the University of Washington. I have volunteered there on many projects to foster international understanding. I’ve also taken pictures for them and just finished editing this video teaser for an upcoming event.I will also do a little video of the event itself.
And right now, I’m on the non-profit’s front page!
In the interview I talk about being an international student, Germany and my travel to Mexico. There’s also a number of random Q&As. Enjoy and let me know what you think!

Mark Briggs compares the different make-up of video features by New York Times tech columnist David Pogue and Walter Mossberg’s video column for the Wall Street Journal. While the NYT version is highly polished, Mossberg’s column is rather… basic. Will the future of news be dominated by bad quality?
