Photojournalism

Specialist Course
10 classes / 3 hours per class / 1 class per week

It can be argued that photojournalism is one of the most reliable and immediate forms of communication giving evidence of events globally. In an environment where the need for information is insatiable, photojournalism helps to answer questions and give rise to new ones. This course explores photojournalism and its many differing forms in the digital age. You will look at traditional ideas of photojournalism and reportage and how it has evolved over the years since the introduction of digital cameras and the internet. Students will learn about the different aspects of working as a photojournalist for newspapers and wire agencies. Technical, professional and ethical aspects of photojournalism will be covered as well as practical experience. Students will have the opportunity to meet guest photojournalists and industry representatives. Over the duration of the course you will work on your own project or assignment and one class will be designated to covering an event reported by the news.
