CAPE TOWN: How cool is it to be introduced to speak to your peers by one of your heros and confidants?
You may know Ally Palmer as that force behind so many strong newspaper redesign projects in the UK and Europe. To wit, Ally was called to the stage at the Stockholm SNDS awards gala many times to collect big prizes for great work but you would never know all that pomp even existed when you chat him up at the bar.
He is the humblest bloke on the planet - and so with much thanks - I want to thank Ally publicly and share with you how cool it was to be set up by the man from Prestwick.
A true blessing in life.
Connecting Scandinavia to the Visual Editors experience
This Web map from Tuesday 29 May, 2007 plots the global audience that is visiting the Visual Editors blogs, message boards and critiques.
SNDS - Stockholm attracted visual editors from Norway, Sweden, Finland and Denmark (as well as Chile, and Ireland, and Singapore!), and on Saturday I was invited to share some of my recent projects with Web video for newspapers in a new session I call “‘Web Video is not Television.’
Sharing Web video links, and feedback.
Today I received an e-mail from a Stockholm publisher who came to my video session and was inspired to think about Web video journalism in a new way.
Hi Robb,
Thanks for an inspiring lecture on Saturday. I agree with you that web video should be used as a complement to the news texts, and not as a mini-TV program. I was inspired to use it in that way the day after your seminar, when a Japanese pop group visited Stockholm. I took two brief shots, one of the group presenting themselves and giving a small comment on Stockholm, and one of their fans showing their happiness.
Keep up your good work, I think Swedish newspapers will transform themselves according to your thoughts in the near future.Best regards,
Martin Lindgren, publisher of Stockholmsposten.se
How cool is that response?
Sure enough, I followed his link and found that he did use two 30-second video interviews as part of his online storytelling.
I am floored at this response. One thing to say thanks - quite another to take action immediately.
