Journalism 333 - Intro to Visual Storytelling

This course introduces the skills necessary to produce journalistic photographs, video, infographics and graphic design, as well as the critical and creative perspective necessary to understand how visual stories work best in the journalistic ecosystem. Students will develop visual literacy, read diverse perspectives on visual journalism, ponder ethical questions and discuss the importance of visual issues in contemporary journalism. In partnership with their classmates, students will apply these lessons to produce their own credible visual stories. Students may use their own cameras, but they are not required to own or buy one.

Open to Senior, Junior and Sophomore Journalism majors only.
