[S2 Ep2] Eleanor Mannion – Mobile Journalist at RTE (Ireland)

  • Summary

  • Eleanor Mannion is a journalist, writing, shooting and editing stories and reports for the web, social media and broadcast TV & radio. Based in Dublin, Ireland Eleanor works for RTE, Ireland’s national TV and Radio broadcaster. Oh, and the film work, the editing… all done on a smartphone.

    In fact, in 2016 she made the first TV broadcast documentary in Europe to be shot on a smartphone.

    Eleanor is part of a small team of journalists at RTE fronted by Philip Bromwell – the team’s entire workflow is mobile oriented.

    In this episode we talk about Eleanors process, how she plans and executes her shoot and tips for budding smartphone storytellers.

    We talk about the process of making one film in particular which I recommend you watch first – Lockdown Diaries:

    This story "Lockdown Diaries" can be found in it's landscape form here on the RTE website:

    And here in it's vertical mobile form on Twitter:

    In fact early on we get mildly technical about landscape (horizontal) Vs portrait (vertical) – if that’s not your thing just skip a few minutes to the … mark.
