Marcus Thorne

Mobile Journalism (MoJo) Pioneer and Broadcast Technology Specialist. A veteran field producer, he reviews hardware and software solutions for journalists who need to produce broadcast-quality content on the go.

Marcus spent a decade as a cameraman in conflict zones before becoming an evangelist for smartphone reporting. He bridges the gap between traditional broadcast engineering and modern mobile flexibility. His expertise covers the nitty-gritty of gear selection—from lavalier mics to editing apps like LumaFusion—and the technical standards required for 4K broadcast. He is also a safety trainer, teaching journalists how to maintain their equipment and themselves in hostile or remote environments. His advice is technical, budget-conscious, and field-tested.
