14 Dec Cross Platform Journalism submission
Where’s the #MeToo for the gay community?
Some would argue sexual assault between gay men has hit staggering numbers, but this doesn’t get talked about.
Team members and roles:
Tom Shearsmith: editor, camera operator, research
Meshanda: presenting
Sintija Gerucka: assistant camera operator, script, research, online article.
I did the research for the story with Tom as the LGBTQ+ community is something that we thought needs more covering in terms of the #MeToo movement. I went away and wrote the script for the voice over, which included facts, figures, and an angle that the reason why this doesn’t get discussed as much is because it can be a traumatic experience. I was with Tom on the day of filming for the GV’s and B-roll. I also wrote the article for the website based on our VT.
