Visual Medium

Writing for a visual medium has both its similarities and differences than compared to tradition print. I'll start with how it's the same. Obviously, since they are both different elements under journalism, they have a common goal: to tell a story. And both use the same principles in doing so such as the who, what, when, etc... However, the differences are there as well. In tv/radio pieces, there are those extra elements like nat sound, medium shots, close-ups. Basically, nothing you would ever in print.
