Newcastle University student to film International Festival


Newcastle University is sending five budding Bachelor of Communication students to France for a media internship at international event 'The Festival of World Cultures'.
 
The lucky students will work alongside media production lecturer Dr Vikrant Kishore and film a documentary from July 19 to 29.
 
The students will also have the opportunity to assist the French media on coverage of the event.
 
2NUR-FM Student Journalist Patrick Wood says he's grateful to be given the chance to apply his university work in a practical way.

"I'm absolutely, incredibly excited. I love to travel and love to do video work. This combines everything I love to do and I'm absolutely psyched for this opportunity."

The Students will be hosted by local families around Gannat during their stay, to have a taste of French country and culture.
