The January 2010 issue of News Photographer magazine features a cover story on NPPA's NewsVideo Workshop, which celebrates its 50th anniversary this March when it convenes in Norman, OK. One of the organization's long-standing and most successful annual education events, the NewsVideo Workshop continues to draw participants from around the globe as more and more visual journalists tackle the process of learning how to become great video storytellers.
Also in this issue, three-time Pulitzer Prize-winning Stanley J. Forman remembers one of those shots that was nearly missed, thanks to a malfunctioning motor drive, and shares with readers a contact sheet of his roll of Tri-X that captured the face of racism in Boston in 1976. In other features, Brian McDermott explores photojournalism's new frontier, where mobile phones, laptops, and the upcoming "tablet" devices are developing new audiences for photography; Sally Morrow Gomez shares with readers an inside view of how immigration is depicted to American newspaper readers; author Stephen Wolgast reviews John Bartelstone's new book "When History Won't Fade Away"; and photojournalist and author and professor Ken Kobré writing about photojournalism under fire asks, "But has it been killed yet?" These features and more in this issue of News Photographer magazine.* * * *
