Every week since February 3rd, 2020, John has lead a news team made up of participants from Community Living Burlington. John directs and produces a 8-10 minute news program highlighting the interests and skills of the reporters.

The Work Flow

When Community Living Burlington met in person, John would film the reporters on a Monday afternoon for an hour and a half on a green screen. The two hours following John would edit the news report so the reporters could view the program.

Since the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, John has moved the News Team online. Participants will join a Zoom call and report on their interests.

Both styles of the news team, require John to produce and edit the whole program. John edits in Final Cut for these videos.
