20 Photojournalists' fantastic portfolios :: 10,000 Words - 0 views

  • The digital era has revolutionized photography. Photojournalists not only have access to high-end cameras with a seemingly infinite number of features, but their photos can be presented in many different ways, including slideshows and multimedia packages. However, it doesn't matter the technology that powers the photography, what matters is the eye and innate skill of the photographer, as evidenced below.

Behind the Scenes: Child's-Eye View of Haiti - Lens Blog - NYTimes.com - 0 views

  •  
    "For two weeks, 28 young Haitians used their perspective as citizens to create a distinctive document: pictures of Haiti, as it regenerates, through the eyes of insiders. With point-and-shoot digital cameras, students ranging in age from 9 to 18 participated in a project organized by the nonprofit Zanmi Lakay Photography Workshop, run by Jennifer Pantaléon, 48, and her husband, Guy Pantaléon, 41."

Media Cache - London Newspapers Challenge Web's Gratis Orthodoxy - NYTimes.com - 0 views

  • As The Times and its Sunday sibling challenge the Internet orthodoxy that readers will refuse to pay for general news online, some of the conventions of newspaper Web design are already tumbling. Freed from the imperative to generate clicks and to lure search engines, The Times and Sunday Times have taken a novel, reader-focused approach that minimizes distractions.
  • advertisers are most interested in audiences who actually care about what they read or watch, rather than the casual Web surfers.
  • The new Sunday Times site is particularly striking visually, with a heavy emphasis on photography. Clicking on an article brings it up in a separate box, with everything else on the page shrouded in a dark gray screen that makes for easier reading.

BBC - Viewfinder: David Campbell on photojournalism in the age of image abundance - 0 views

  • our 'photo-op' culture, where much of everyday life seems picture driven and played out in front of the camera.
  • "As a professional practice, photojournalism has historically relied on two forms of scarcity. The first involved the scarcity of skills to make good images, and the second the scarcity of popular access to the dominant forms of print distribution, the newspapers and magazines. Both of these limits have now been fundamentally challenged.
  • "Amateurs are able to purchase and use the best camera technology to make striking photographs, and - although it is not solely responsible for the decline of newspapers - the transformative power of the Internet has reduced the cost of publication to near zero, thereby opening up new channels for the circulation of imagery. Together these transformations have produced a new era of abundant pictures.

BBC - Viewfinder: Adrian Evans on future funding of photojournalism - 0 views

  • Quality photojournalism is expensive - researching the story, gaining access, spending time with your subjects, post production and editing - there are no short cuts. Newspapers and magazines spend a tiny proportion of their income on content and they certainly don't want to spend it on photography.
  • Success now lies in being multiskilled, merely taking photographs is not enough. My advice to aspiring photographers is that they need to be able to design a web page using html, know their way around a multitude of publishing software programmes shoot and edit video, record audio and most importantly research and pitch stories.
  • rather than sourcing funding from the print media or distributor of a story, photographers are working with organisations who have a message they want to disseminate.

  • NGOs and foundations
  • active involvement in their visual communications, advising on how best to approach a subject visually and then exploring different outputs for the resulting work
  • A body of work can simultaneously be a print feature or a series of print features, a book, an exhibition, a multimedia piece, a web gallery all of which carry different price structures ranging from the free to the expensive.
