This is a conversation with Missouri School of Journalism Assistant Professor Judd Slivka, who turned an entry-level multimedia course into a four-month experiment with mobile reporting tools. Here Slivka explains the tradeoffs involved and introduces several peripheral devices that help get the quality of iPhone and iPad audio and video closer to that of standard professional-level gear.
