New media and video journalism
With a number of prepared modules in his web arsenal, Robb can adjust the content and pacing to suit the audience. This ability worked well for us due to the wide variation of skill levels at our newspaper groups. During a recent trip to Calgary, Edmonton and Vancouver, Robb was an engaging and effective presenter.

MONACO: Mathias Döpfner opened his interview segment at the Monaco Media Forum with the stunning news that the German media giant’s newspaper division is showing a 25.4% profit.
“If print is a dead business, then this kind of death feels pretty comfortable for me.”
No kidding. Springer is riding in the opposite direction of almost every other western media house. Yes, Arianna Huffington is also on stage but is clearly outclassed in this discussion.

I am teaching a four day seminar on multimedia reporting to Web journalists for France 24. France 24 is A CNN-style 24/7 video and Web news organization designed for a French audience.
I was hired as a consultant to New York City-based Mignon-Media and have been working closely with Jeff Mignon for months in preparation to make this the best possible training event possible.
The studios are first-class, state-of-the art. Uber-impressive.
The editor-in-chief, Karine Broyer, gave me a tour while they were broadcasting and then she came to attend the class. I can tell you right now that impresses me the most. When the editor comes to class.
I have, without fail, witnessed over the years that when the editor goes to class with staff that the training takes hold.

Just a note to thank the PNA Foundation for the opportunity to have Robb Montgomery visit our newspaper yesterday.
Our staff was very impressed with his presentation. They felt that he showed what is happening in newsrooms around the world as well as what is possible for a staff our size.
They felt his message was inspirational and that was one of the reasons I wanted him to be in Pottsville. After seeing Robb present at America East I felt that he could energize our staff and help with our corporate culture as it pertains to interactive media.
Mission accomplished! Robb was very easy to work with, professional and took the time for a Q&A session.
