Again this year, the Big 10 Network will produce live “BTN StudentU” webcasts of selected Husker sports events. HuskerVision produces these webcasts for BTN, and they use CoJMC majors as the play-by-play and color announcers. Student announcers are paid for their efforts, and they receive a link to download the recorded video of the event for their personal demo materials.
For the fall semester, BTN is focusing on women’s soccer and volleyball events.
If you are interested in announcing a live BTN StudentU event this fall, use the form linked below to sign-up.
These webcasts are open to any CoJMC major at any grade level; you do not need to have taken the BRDC 375 Sports Broadcasting course. You should feel confident in your knowledge of soccer or volleyball rules and terminology. You would need to be available starting around 90 minutes prior to the stated start time of the game.
