• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Videojournalism: Multimedia Storytelling for Online, Broadcast and Documentary Journalists is an essential guide for solo video storytellers-from "backpack" videojournalists to short-form documentary makers to do-it-all broadcast reporters.

Based on interviews with award-winning professionals sharing their unique experiences and knowledge, Videojournalism covers topics such as crafting and editing eye-catching short stories, recording high-quality sound, and understanding the laws and ethics of filming in public and private places. Other topics include:

. understanding the difference between a story and a report

. finding a theme and telling a story in a compact time frame

. learning to use different cameras and lenses-from smart phones to mirrorless and digital cinema cameras

. using light, both natural and artificial

. understanding color and exposure

The second edition of this best-selling text has been completely revised and updated. Heavily illustrated with more than 550 photographs, the book also includes more than 200 links to outstanding examples of short-form video stories. Anatomy of a News Story, a short documentary made for the book, follows a day in the life of a solo TV videojournalist on an assignment (with a surprise ending), and helps readers translate theory to practice.

This book is for anyone learning how to master the art and craft of telling real, short-form stories with words, sound, and pictures for the Web or television.

A supporting companion website links to documentaries and videos, and includes additional recommendations from the field's most prominent educators.
