Singapore – School children in ASEAN will soon be able to share their rich and diverse cultures with their peers in other ASEAN countries with the launch of the ASEAN NewsMaker Project. Led by Singapore, the initiative will see close to 500 primary and secondary school students across the 10 ASEAN countries producing informational video content which showcases their country’s culture and lifestyle. The ASEAN NewsMaker Project will begin in Singapore in June before being rolled out to ASEAN member countries. Developed by Singapore media company EyePower Games and supported by the Media Development Authority of Singapore (MDA), students will utilise the NewsMaker software to learn to produce video clips that touches on aspects of life in their country, ranging from school life to history to food. Following the launch and training of Singapore students, two trainers from EyePower Games will travel to the remaining nine ASEAN member states to provide a 2-day training on the NewsMaker software. The training will cover the use of the NewsMaker software, video-making technique as well as responsible use of the internet. At the end of the training, the participants will produce and submit video clips (five minutes each) to the trainers. Packaged in broadcast-news format, the produced clips will be uploaded to the ASEAN Media Portal (www.aseanmedia.net) where they can be viewed by all the participants.
