I recently completed the Drone Journalism and Media course at Stanmore School of Business, and I must say it was a valuable learning experience. As a journalist from Brazil, I was looking to expand my skillset and explore the potential of drone journalism in the Latin American context. The course provided a detailed overview of the subject, including topics such as drone regulations, safety protocols, and storytelling techniques. I appreciated the emphasis on practical skills, which included hands-on training with drones and editing software. The instructors were knowledgeable and provided constructive feedback on my assignments. One area for improvement could be the addition of more region-specific examples and case studies, but overall, I was satisfied with the course and would recommend it to others interested in drone journalism.
