Journalists in the Virginia, Maryland, and Washington, DC region share inside tips to help students and young professionals land that first/next job. Face Time with the Pros is an all day, collection of seminars designed to help students learn how to be better storytellers, perform on camera, and find out what hiring managers are really looking for. Register now!
All students will rotate through a series of sessions that include:
Getting that first job
Video Storytelling
Going Live
Producing
AI in the Newsroom
Each student will have the option to choose one alternating session. The options are:
Documentary/Long-form
Radio & Podcasting
The day will conclude with our Silver Circle Panel where folks who have been in the industry for at least 25 years share their years of wisdom.
There will be lots of opportunities—along with sign-ups—for one-on-one sessions with the pros who can review resumes, resume reels and provide job interview tips.
brainrot clicker is a fast-paced idle clicker game that leans heavily into internet meme culture and chaotic humor. Players tap continuously to generate points, unlock absurd upgrades, and experience increasingly unhinged visuals and sounds. The game is simple to play but highly addictive, making it perfect for short sessions when you want quick fun, nonstop action, and pure brain-melting entertainment.
This post really resonates with me! I remember attending a gaming expo last year, just like this Face Time event. It was exciting to meet developers behind gems like Geometry Dash Subzero—totally inspired my own game design dreams!
Participants rotate through hands-on sessions taught by experienced Among Us broadcast journalists and newsroom leaders
Wheelie Life challenges players to maintain momentum under constant pressure. Every slope, bump, and curve affects balance differently. Smooth and measured inputs are rewarded, while hasty moves punish. Each ride builds confidence and skill. The longer you go, the more intense the challenge becomes.
Capital Emmys offering this Face Time with the Pros event is pretty cool, featuring industry veterans who’ve been around over 25 years and covering topics from getting that first job to AI in the newsroom; it makes me wonder, could a Free CPM calculator help students visualize ad costs for their future projects, or is that too niche for this?
