Guided by student editors and a professional faculty advisor, the Peacock Magazine seeks to represent a diverse and international youth culture in Paris through long-form op-ed and investigative pieces, with a focus on a variety of topics that range from global politics to food and fashion. Made up of a diverse staff, Peacock Magazine adds a global voice and perspective to the print media world in Paris and beyond.

Being a part of the Peacock Magazine staff means gaining real-world experience in the art of magazine production, from design and layout to writing, editing, interviewing, and investigative skills. While the Peacock Magazine does accept freelance submissions, students are encouraged to take the magazine workshop course, Journalism Practicum, (CM1851).

DIGITAL MEDIA

The Plume is a time-sensitive news site that covers current events on the AUP campus, in Paris, and across the world. Staff writers come from a diverse variety of global backgrounds and report in English on a wide array of current events spanning from politics and news to arts and culture. Relevant, current, and hard-hitting, The Plume adds a dynamic international voice to an increasingly powerful digital news community. Guided by student editors and faculty advisors, The Plume staff works to ensure a consistent flow of dynamic content to the AUP community and beyond.

Freelance work is accepted, although students are strongly encouraged to take the Digital Journalism workshop, Digital Journalism Practicum (CM1851). Students will learn the art of digital journalism, including relevant technical skills, social media management, and journalistic writing and research skills.

Peacock Play is a broadcast journalism platform that produces dynamic video content several times a week. Peacock Play provides visual support to Peacock Magazine and the Peacock Plume in the form of in-depth interviews, investigative reports, and artistic videography. Peacock Play is an essential visual component to the effectiveness and relevance of Peacock Media, giving readers a look into the Peacock world—on campus, in Paris and beyond.
