Program Overview
SHADOW WNBA ANALYST, LACHINA ROBINSON
​
Rising Media Stars (RMS) will shadow LaChina Robinson at least one Atlanta Dream home game. During that time, they will get to observe the functions of production and on-air talent firsthand from the play by play, analyst, producer, and reporter viewpoint.
GAME DAY ON-CAMERA EXPERIENCES
Rising Media Stars will cover at least three (3) professional sporting events in Atlanta as a reporter. The stand-ups and interviews will be recorded and compiled for a final reel to be presented to each participant at the end of the year.
ATTEND STRUCTURE LED CLASSROOM SESSIONS
Rising Media Stars are required to attend at least three (3) classroom sessions taught by co-founders Kevin Nixon and LaChina Robinson. These sessions will include but are not limited to topics on “How To Cover A Game” and “Master’s Class” sessions with select members of our Board of Director
1-ON-1 MENTORING W/ MAJOR INFLUENCERS
Each Rising Media Star will be granted a minimum of three (3) one-on-one mentoring sessions with a member of our Board of Directors. This guidance will guarantee additional oversight of the progression of each RMS’s individual improvement over the course of the year.
A FINAL EDITED BROADCAST REEL
At the end of the 1-year program, every Rising Media Star will receive a “reel” of work with samples from their RMS “live events”, as well as any work they have done outside of RMS and want to include in the footage. This is an essential tool and required for most employment opportunities within Sports Broadcasting.
