Robb Montgomery in Moscow.
I’ll be presenting a lecture on visual journalism at the sixth Russian news design conference in Moscow Oct.31-Nov. 1
Visual Journalism: The Alternative to Narrative
Visual Journalism: The Alternative to Narrative
In this session, editors will learn presentation methods beyond the straight narrative. You’ll discover alternate story forms and more visual approaches to make information easy for readers to comprehend. You’ll also see techniques that embrace more Web-centric, community-driven presentations. Understanding different story forms will help you to assign stories to writers in more meaningful ways. The session will use attendee’s publications as visual aids. After you register for the conference, we’ll tell you how to submit your publication.
I will be giving this lecture on July 17, from 3-4 p.m. at the ASBPE National Editorial Conference in Washington, D.C.
