Title:

"Los Angeles School of Broadcasting focuses on minority students"

Date:
November 19, 1974

Synopsis

Reporting from the Los Angeles School of Broadcasting, Jan Mitagawa interviews a school representative about the program and the students they enroll. The school is run by Don Malloy, a former radio announcer, and teaches students technical skills and the basics of creative talent needed to enter the radio and television fields. Although the school is open to anyone, they focus on meeting the needs of minority students, such as motivation and job placement assistance for graduates. Footage includes students in class, as well as students getting hands-on experience playing records and adjusting the controls.

Note:  The KTLA newsfilm collection at UCLA consists of cut and unedited stories, outtakes and fill footage, originally shot on 16mm reversal film stock with magnetic soundtrack. Some footage, particularly material not used for broadcast, may be without sound.
