“Technology changes, storytelling never will." Mike Castellucci even shows this on a t-shirt he wears from time to time. "Me taking everything to the extreme, I started shooting not only 2 minute stories with my phone, but half our shows for network television." Mike is the mastermind behind "Phoning it in", a television programme that is completely shot on mobile phones. It all started with his boss asking him to go on an interview without a camera crew but his phone - and ended with an Emmy award (and several others). In our podcast, Mike tells us how he shoots his network shows, how an iphone ended up under a big bulls feet, how important it is to honour people and their stories. Mike also teaches journalism at Michigan State University and produced a special Corona programme together with his students that won him another award.

A few weeks ago, I raved about a half-hour special ran by WFAA-TV, the ABC affiliate in Dallas, at the end of last year. It featured a compilation of stories shot, written, and edited by widely acclaimed feature reporter Mike Castellucci. And his camera? It was the one on his iPhone. Castellucci has become well known in Dallas -- and, now, among TV news reporters and photographers nationwide -- for his compelling piece of boundary-pushing storytelling. His features actually appear quite straightforward until you realize the equipment he used to shoot them. But give him credit: he saw a need and attacked it, fearlessly flying into both multimedia journalism and iPhone videography. He wound up with an impressive result -- and a powerful niche in his market. Castellucci joins me for Episode #27 of the Telling The Story podcast. "People ask me why," he said, "and I think it was [because of] two reasons. One: I wanted to be first. And, the challenge of it ... I had been doing stories on my iPhone 4, and I just said, 'Let's take it 19 steps further.'" Here is a reporter who has had plenty of success in various markets, but he chose to take on a challenge many journalists would reject. He deserves some major kudos. → The post PODCAST EPISODE #27: Mike Castellucci, reporter/anchor, WFAA-TV appeared first on Telling The Story.
