Allan King
Having served Sky News for ten years, Channel 4, Melody FM etc, Allan King, a veteran news anchor from the United Kingdom, has decided to settle in Kerala . He was in the Capital recently to train the officers in the British High Commission on med
ia matters.
After exploring communication and gaining a respectable position in all the areas he has served, he says it’s time to give back what he has experienced. These days, he is sharing his experiences with the students of Asian Academy of Film and Television, Noida. He describes Indian students as “thirsty for knowledge”, unlike the students in his country, who run after fun. He finds his role of a teacher rewarding. He uses video recordings of both good and bad interviews to teach his students.
Around 60 Indian channels are aired in the U.K. Discussing the news channels in India, he mentions that he finds NDTV easier to follow. Over all, news rooms of various channels here are better appointed and acoustically sound. .
