    A new generation of multimedia journalists in Grahamstown got a kickstart in the form of a video toolkit from Vuselela Media.

    A new generation of multimedia journalists in Grahamstown got a kickstart in the form of a video toolkit from Vuselela Media.

    In this video, Upstart project manager Shireen Badat talks to Gino Shelile, a media facilitator and content producer for Vuselela Media.

    Upstart, a newspaper project which works with pupils from Grade 8 to Grade 11, received a boost in the form of a videomaking kit from Vuselela Media.

    The kit includes a tripod, two cutting-edge video cameras, an Apple Mac laptop and educational booklets full of pointers for making great videos – all worth over R20 000. After an official handover on Monday 19 August, Upstart pupils had a week of intensive training where they learned how to craft compelling stories.

    Vuselela media facilitator Gino Shelile first worked with Upstart as a Rhodes Journalism student in 2011, and he saw an opportunity for Vuselela to help them out. The media organisation is a non-profit company that trains and connects young South Africans, giving them the skills and opportunities to share their stories.
