MEDIA TRAINING

Stevens Media Consulting prepares professionals for Television, Webcast, Radio and Print Interviews in the following areas:

Live In-Studio
Remote Interviews
Satellite Tours
Interviews for Soundbites or Quotes
Book Tours
Unscheduled Interviews

Whom is this For?
Media Training is requested by leaders in business, medicine, journalism, law.. the music industry.. authors – essentially by any professional or spotlighted person who is asked to participate in an interview. It is also suited to publications wishing to strengthen or reinforce their media presence through TV/radio interviews or programming.

Description
Since the majority of my work consists of consulting to television journalists, the Media Training is always sensitive to the current demands of the business.. as well as to the styles/formats of specific programs. Understanding the interview process: how to prepare.. how to participate in the planning.. and how to ‘behave’ in the interview- is the best guarantee of comfort and success.

Television Media Training is appropriate for first-timers as well as for seasoned participants. A person’s behavior and the information being shared often ‘flattens’ in the process of the interview. As a result, the likelihood of holding an audience.. of being asked back.. or of providing strong, memorable quotes is dim. On the positive side: an interview blossoms when a person understands the criteria by which a successful TV segment is measured.
