Does he or she attend the festival? Or just cover it by what is posted on the Internet and social media? Personally, as a journalist, I would attend the music festival and talk to people attending. I would also keep a camera ready for pictures and to capture videos of any unusual and new activities taking place. I would even stay until the end of the music festival to get further interviews from the attendants, ssecurity and clean up crew.<\/p>\n<p>I would attempt to talk to Ultra\u2019s public relations team and get a press pass to talk to the musicians and DJ\u2019s that will be playing.<\/p>\n<p>As a journalist, there is no such thing as too much information. You need to get all the information needed, even if you don\u2019t end up using everything you collect. Ultra would be a great opportunity to test my abilities as a journalist and see if I am ready to tackle a challenge that requires so much coverage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By HANYA ALKHAMIS The Ultra Music Festival is coming soon.
