In this module, you’ll pick one of those mediums, learn its tools and explore its storytelling potential. All Image & Sound Modules meet once per week, but expect to put in at least one additional day — and probably more — every week working on assignments for the class. If you're having trouble choosing between modules, don’t worry — though you’ll take only one Image & Sound module during your time at the J-school, you’ll be able to to explore other mediums in other classes.

JOURNALISM, THE LAW & SOCIETY
This course is designed to acquaint students with the basic protections and restrictions of the law as they apply to the media. First Amendment rights and legal responsibilities and limitations will be examined and discussed. The course will look at these questions from three viewpoints: from (i) the practical view of a journalist doing his job and (ii) from a legal perspective, all the while (iii) considering the rules in a public policy context: are they fair and appropriate in our society? Significant court cases and fundamental legal rules will be explored in the context of political and historical realities, and in terms of journalistic standards and practices; contemporary media law issues will also be focused on. Among the basic First Amendment issues which will be examined are libel, invasion of privacy, prior restraints, newsgathering and newsgathering torts, copyright and the reporter's privilege.
MASTERS PROJECT I
The master’s project will be your most sustained effort during your time at the journalism school, encompassing both fall and spring semesters. It’s not a thesis in the traditional academic sense; think of it instead as an in-depth exploration of a topic as a journalist would pursue it. Master’s projects can take a variety of forms, some of them incorporating elements from more than one medium: print, photo, audio, video, data. Regardless of format, you’ll work on your project under the guidance of an experienced advisor, who will help you to hone your topic, figure out your reporting strategy and serve as your editor for the duration of the project.
