More Doctored Photos

I want to make a crack about stenciling the old journalism aphorism, “If your mother says she loves you, check it out” onto newsroom walls, but so few people are actually working in newsrooms it wouldn’t make sense to do it. Maybe we can have it embedded into the background of content management systems? Maybe have it pop up like...

WASPs in Flight

Okay, that was a little cheesy. But this is a nice piece by NPR on Lillian Yonally, one of the Women Airforce Service Pilots during World War II. And she carried a camera … with color film. Lillian’s Story : In Color from NPR on Vimeo.

Carolyn Carter, Pioneering Photojournalist and Grady Alum, Passes at 91

Last week, Carolyn Carter passed away at the age of 91. Mrs. Carter was the first female photojournalist at the Atlanta Constitution and was an award winning photojournalist. She and her husband, Don, founded the Carter Chair for Journalism Excellence at Grady College in 2004. Her importance to the University of Georgia campus won’t ever be truly measurable, but please...

Building Your Business Model

Steve Myers has a great post up over on the Poynter Institute’s site about ways for journalists to think like business folks. Spend some time on it, then spend a lot of time figuring out how to implement it. As it’s graduation season and the “staff” job market is still pretty slack, a lot of students will be heading into...

One Moment in May

The New York Times is … well … crowd sourcing a photo story. Yep, on May 2, at 11 a.m. local (to them) time, they’re asking people to shoot a photo of their world and send it in. One side of me thinks this is pretty crass – the Times looking for free content – and the other side of...

Documentary Project Idea?

The Mrs. sent along a link to an upcoming book project by photographer Kip Fulbeck looking at multiracial kids. (Watch the video for a good explanation.) He shot it as a series of portraits against white seamless, but I’m thinking this could be a neat, ongoing documentary project … hint hint, students …

Rich Addicks, “Mettle on Metal”

Rich Addicks has posted his first video shot entirely with a DSLR camera (a Nikon D3S). Nicely done, nice matched action edits in it, too.

The Eddie Adams Workshop – Apply Now

The Eddie Adams Workshop, one of the legendary ones, is now accepting applications. Barnstorm, as it’s also called, has traditionally been one of the best workshops for college students and young professionals. It’s a great atmosphere with a great collection of editors and the alumni have gone on to do great things. Well worth giving up a few trips to...

Shooting Blind, Blind Shooting

I hate to admit it, but I’m sure at some point in my teaching career I’ve wondered if some of my students were blind. Turns out, aside from being cold and crass, it could happen to me someday. (The having a student who is blind, not the becoming blind myself.) Have to say I wish they’d included some of her...

Cartier-Bresson Exhibit at MoMA

The New York Times has a review of the soon-to-open Henri Cartier-Bresson exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. Any student or friend of mine knows how much I love his work, how much I admired the man and how desperately I have tried to emulate his vision through the development of my own style. Sometimes,...
