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.
