Industry profile
In mass communication, media are the communication outlets or tools used to store and
deliver information or data.The term refers to components of the mass media
communications industry, such as print media, publishing, the news media, photography,
cinema, broadcasting (radio and television), digital media, and advertising.
The development of early writing and paper enabling longer-distance communication systems
such as mail, including in the Persian Empire (Chapar Khaneh and Angarium) and Roman
Empire, can be interpreted as early forms of media.Writers such as Howard Rheingold have
framed early forms of human communication, such as the Lascaux cave paintings and early
writing, as early forms of media. Another framing of the history of media starts with the
Chauvet Cave paintings and continues with other ways to carry human communication
beyond the short range of voice: smoke signals, trail markers, and sculpture.
The Term media in its modern application relating to communication channels was first used
by Canadian communications theorist Marshall McLuhan, who stated in Counterblast (1954):
"The media are not toys; they should not be in the hands of Mother Goose and Peter Pan
executives. They can be entrusted only to new artists because they are art forms." By the
mid-1960s, the term had spread to general use in North America and the United Kingdom.
The phrase mass media was, according to H.L. Mencken, used as early as 1923 in the United
States.
The term medium (the singular form of media) is defined as "one of the means or channels of
general communication, information, or entertainment in society, as newspapers, radio, or
television."
Currently one of the most popular means is internet and Social media. Everyone has
smartphones and internet connection nowadays. With just one click you can access a lot of
things such as music, movies, news etc.
Youtube has been evolved a lot in recent days and it helped a lot of people to get a platform
to showcase themselves. People are uploading music content, technical videos, news, podcast
etc. Which helped the audience to get everything at one place.

Month - August
Week -4
st th
1 August – 7 August

On the first day of this week I got just 3 videos and I edited them and sent final video
to them. From the next day they stopped sending work. I asked the person who was
working above me he said that the contract with the client have been terminated as he
didn’t paid the full amount to the interns and terminated contract with us.
I got few amount of my stipend and they didn’t even sent me the certificate.
Also the channel where all these videos were uploaded got deleted and till now there
is no further information regarding my certificate, remaining payment.
For editing More than 100 videos when you don’t receive what you deserve is
disheartning.
Also no certificate was provided to any of the intern who worked for UVNEWS and
even the Youtube channel of UVNEWS was deleted and there is no work for us to
show.
Chapter 3
Learning Outcome
Working with UVNEWS was a good experience despite of what happened with me and other
interns at the end.
Working with them taught me how to work in the industry and systematically as we all had
deadlines to complete the work, we also have re-edit the video if something is wrong in the
video.
It helped me increase my speed and skill in editing as I have to edit about 6-8 videos daily.
What happened with me at the end quiet demotivated me , But it is the part of our learning
too as these kind of situations and experience teaches us a lot for our future.

The most important skill enhanced during this internship was my communication skill that is
one of the most important skill in a person’s professional life
It gave me a good experience of professional life.
