My Storify #CMA14 lecture on Photojournalism: Tools of the Trade
Finally! I've been waiting an entire year to attend my second College Media Association conference, and the time has come.
This conference will be special for me, not only because am I
presenting two workshops (cell phone use in the media and tools of the
photojournalism trade), but because five student editors from the Owens Outlook online newspaper staff and Intro to Photojournalism course are going with me.
The editor-in-chief, assistant editor/webmaster, sports editor, news
editor and the features editor are all taking the trip with me in my RV
to Philadelphia on Wednesday.
They will not only gain valuable information from the dozens of
workshops they will attend, but it pretty much cements their dedication
to returning next semester!
The following is one of two Storify lessons I prepared the conference.
This lesson is for the Tool of the Trade session. Since I only have 50 minutes, which is definitely not
enough time to get too deep into any one topic, I used Storify so they can view the articles and YouTube videos on their own.
Thus, I wouldn't
necessarily consider my workshops as a teaching gig, but more discussions, and I'm
the moderator.
