People receive and consume information in a highly complex way now thanks to technology. As a spokesperson for your brand, do you think you are talking to them in a way that truly reaches them amid the noisy environment?
The messages you say and how you say them needs to be as customized as the list of channels included in your overall communication strategy.
At Lucie Content, we have worked in all facets of media. We have staff members who’ve spent their entire careers in front of the camera, writing for TV, working with politicians and pursuing politicians for wrongdoing. In essence, we have been on both sides of the aisle and we use it to offer professional guidance to help you.

At Lucie, we know you can CREATE YOUR NEWS. Are you really prepared to do that?
Companies today are developing video to share deeper levels of messaging through multiple channels – like social media and websites – and you need to practice how to tell your story so the audience of all your channels will be engaged. We actually built a state-of-the-art studio that rivals many of the top media markets in the nation. This will be your classroom.
Whether you are preparing to deliver a live presentation to an important external audience or you are filming a short sound bite to deliver to internal employees via Slack, you need to think through what that audience wants and needs to know from you, and then practice.
Podcasts are the latest and greatest content delivery channel, but they are completely different to a 5 minute print interview, for example. Your host will already know a lot about you and your company and your brand. How do you sound like an expert, tell your story, engage emotionally with the audience and get them to take action on what you say?
Of course traditional media still exists, but a lot has changed in terms of who is watching or reading traditional media, how audiences are consuming it, and what they are seeking to understand through it.
In times of crisis or even high intensity, your communications need to be crystal clear and concise. You are less concerned about the channels, but more about your authenticity and clarity on the issues. As a visible leader and spokesperson, do you know how you will perform in a critical situation? You need to know how it feels to have real-time communication demands placed on you with minimal concrete information to share. We are former reporters and anchors. That means we know what a journalist wants, how they’re going to approach it and how they’re going to package based on your own words. You better make sure you’re a wordsmith! That’s where we come in.
Leaders frequently need to address one specific topic on one day and another specific topic the next, say an investor’s earnings presentation followed by an internal product development presentation. Your leader needs to think through and prepare messages that will resonate, engage and motivate each audience.
Professional guidance
We believe in learning through doing. Leaders who have the responsibility for communicating to large audiences understand the importance of what they need to do, so let’s cut the “classroom” time. On-camera role-play scenarios customized to the speaking engagements planned for your leader will be the bulk of session time. Media training for executives will take place during film review and critique with immediate feedback.
A session-specific one-sheet will be delivered to your leader following each session that will summarize key learnings and recommendations.
Learning by doing may be supported with some group discussion that focuses on important core concepts of audience-focused communications. On-camera role-play scenarios will be included with immediate feedback.

We learn by doing, not talking. For leaders who speak to big audiences, we skip the classroom stuff and get straight to practice. Most of our time is spent on customized on-camera scenarios that match what you’ll actually face. The real training happens during playback when we review your footage together and give you immediate feedback on what’s working and what isn’t.
Who should get media training? Anyone who talks to reporters or goes on camera. CEOs obviously need it before CNBC interviews, but so do middle managers who might face questions during a company crisis. Tech experts who explain complex products to mainstream audiences require it too.
Even if you’re just the face of a local nonprofit, learning how to stay on message when a microphone appears helps you control your narrative. Most people freeze up or ramble without proper training. The camera picks up every nervous tic. Learning to deliver clear, confident soundbites under pressure isn’t natural – it’s a skill that needs practice.
Media training helps leaders nail their interviews. It teaches you how to deliver punchy messages quickly and confidently when talking to reporters. You’ll learn to stay on message even when caught off guard, making sure you represent your company well. Good media training shows you how to avoid common pitfalls and turn tough questions into opportunities to highlight what matters most.
