The week working with journalists, publishers, editors and students has finished and it’s on to Paris for a lecture on Web video for IFRA and SND.

I shot and shared a lot of film here in Cairo and a few new movies will follow as I steal time away to edit them into worthwhile films. The crowd attending the IFRA/SND gig at the Apple Executive Briefing centre will be the first to see the new stuff I have developed from my recent experiences with producing Camp VJ and other video and new media training events in Canada, Croatia, Pennsylvania, Italy and Germany.
The visual journalism event in France will have me placed along the Seine River facing the Eiffel Tower. Should be nice break to only have one event scheduled for three days and I will take the chance to dine with Parisian colleagues and catch up on things. At least I will not go hungry!

New logo from IHT.com
The International Herald Tribune is dropping its ornate, 142-year-old logo for a more modern, simpler look. The detail-rich logo is being replaced by a phrase, “The Global Edition of the New York Times,” highlighting that the paper is fully part of the New York Times Co. after a 2002 deal.

The “dingbat” first appeared in 1866 on the New York Tribune that later merged into the International Herald Tribune, wrote Richard Kluger in “The Paper: The Life and Death of the Herald Tribune.” The logo has been altered over the years. The logo’s panorama of symbolic images features pyramids and camels, an ox pulling a plow, a bridge, an hourglass, a soaring airplane and a bald eagle atop a clock showing the time of 6:12 — for unknown reasons, Kluger wrote.
