Visuals
communicate. They add intelligence and depth to the written
report and contribute to the reader's understanding. In
Poynter's visual seminars you'll find that collaboration
and sound journalistic principles undergird all of our teaching.
You'll
cover the fundamentals of typography, color, visual and
photographic reporting, and page architecture, and supplement
those subjects with today's challenges in digital storytelling
and interactive design and navigation. You'll get strategies
for working harmoniously with journalists of other disciplines
in order to better serve the reader. Through slide shows,
critiques, multimedia presentations, and hands-on visual
exercises related to your particular craft area, you'll
participate in and learn from lively conversations with
classmates. You'll broaden your horizons with discussions
of journalism ethics and diversity and the challenges of
managing the visual staff. You'll gain an understanding
of the need for every visual journalist to be a good journalist,
newsroom citizen, and leader among colleagues.
Whether
you're an assistant managing editor, photo director, art
director, newspaper page designer, picture editor, photographer,
web designer, or graphic artist, Poynter's Visual Journalism
seminars will help you determine the best way to tell a
story with available resources.
