Lottie Gross, travel editor at Rough Guides explains what the job is like

For many years, we ran a partnership with The Travel Channel called
Travel Channel Academy.  We trained more than 3,000 people to become
travel video journalists - so we know this business pretty well!

Unfortunately, when The Travel Channel was sold to Scripps, they decided not to continue with The Academy.  But we’ve taken all the knowledge that we acquired during those years, and in our partnership with The Travel Channel and turned them into our video courses.

If you’d like to become a Travel Journalist working in video,
you can’t get better training than here.

TV News’ Original Sin

My mentor in the television business was Fred Friendly. For those who never heard of him, he pretty much invented TV news. He was Edward R. Murrow’s producer for many years before he became President of CBS News.


In today’s digital era, platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram dominate our online lives with content created by influencers and creators making a lot of money with the videos they make. It’s easy to see why this is such an attractive career.


Local TV news is also in trouble. Viewership is down and the all-important younger demographic is not even interested in watching. How can we get them watching?
