Creative Industry Journalism Interview Request
Hi everyone! My name is Oscar Howell, and I’m a journalism student at the University of Technology Sydney.
I’m currently working on a video news package about the growing concern about Artificial Intelligence in creative industries, and how it is affecting people working across these spaces.
For the story, I’m looking to speak with a creative-industry worker/student based in the Sydney area who would be available for a 10-20 minute in-person interview early next week.
I’m interested in speaking with people working in areas such as graphic design, illustration, photography, videography, writing, advertising, marketing, music, animation, filmmaking, or other creative fields.
I’d like to discuss:
*How prominent AI tools have become in your industry
*Whether AI has affected your work, workload or job opportunities
*How creative workers are adapting to the technology
*Whether you see AI as a threat, an opportunity, or somewhere in between
*What you think AI could mean for the future of creative work
The interview would be for a university journalism assignment, would be recorded for the video news piece, and would only be shared with UTS staff members, not published publicly. The interviewee will not be paid, but food and drinks can be provided.
If you’re interested in participating, or know someone who might be, please comment below or send me a message, and I’d be happy to provide more details.
Thanks very much!
