Photos from India newspaper design workshop

Hyderabad: Below is a slideshow of photos from the start of a two day newspaper design and redesign workshop in Hyderabad, India. These photos were taken by my host V Antony, Business development manager of IFRA India. Antony’s background is in prepress - so hat’s off to him for making some nice documentary images.

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!
