Science Media SAVVY Express

Science Media SAVVY Express offers one-on-one, 15 minute training sessions for scientists and researchers to practice speaking about their work on-camera, with helpful advice and feedback from experienced media professionals. Participants will learn practical tips for communicating their work to a wider audience and -- as an added bonus -- receive an edited 90 second video clip explaining their research that they are free to reuse.

Savvy Express is being offered at Queenstown Research Week for one day only - Tuesday 3 September. Sessions will take place during pre-assigned time slots based on preferences indicated on the sign up form.

Register here to express your interest in participating. Entry is by selection.

Participation is open to all New Zealand-based researchers attending QRW, and is free of charge. Places are limited, with priority given to those likely to encounter media interest in their research topic or area of expertise.
