New media and video journalism
Last week I filmed an interview with Ally Palmer in Edinburgh.
I went to bonnie Scotland to film scenes for the documentary film “Breaking the News” and to unwind and unplug from my multimedia world tour to newsrooms and classrooms in many countries.
I started editing the Palmer interview on the plane ride from Frankfurt to Chicago and will post a VizEds exclusive excerpt soon.

A few weeks ago I interviewed Mario Garcia, Ph.D. in Prague for the feature-length documentary film project I am producing. I have filmed many interviews over the last two years that document this historic moment in journalism history.
Mario Garcia talks with Robb Montgomery for his documentary film project about journalism in transition.
Martha Stone of Shaping the Future of News asked me to share some excerpts from Mario’s interview on a big screen next month at the WAN-IFRA congress in Hyderabad, India.

Hayam, a photographer for the Middle East News Agency talks about the impact of multimedia training for Egyptian journalists.
In the first week we have made a half dozen interviews with journalists that MDP has trained and we filmed on locations all around Cairo. We have visited the offices of the news training centers for journalists the program has established at MENA, Al Ahram Al Akbar, Cairo University and other news organizations. We have done interviews in the streets and at sunrise this morning we filmed some new footage from the Pyramids. We were buzzed by huge military aircraft flying at low altitude. Have to wait for the film to be ingested to see how it came out but here re a few snaps from my trusty LX-2 which has joined me on my adventures the last four years.
