Produce Stronger Video Stories: NPPF Workshop With Poynter's NewsU

DURHAM, NC (September 10, 2010) – The best stories are born from simple storytelling techniques. Learn how to refine and adapt your voice in the Video Storytelling Workshop: 2010 Edition from the National Press Photographers Foundation and Poynter's NewsU. For $65 or less, you'll learn how to make your stories more memorable from the comfort of your home or office in this daylong online workshop on Saturday, September 25, 2010.
In this full day of training, veteran photojournalists will show you how to find and develop memorable characters; how to make mundane stories -- like meetings and weather stories -- more interesting; and how to anticipate moments in the field, even on tight deadlines.

Whether you're working in a team or as a solo journalist, you'll learn fresh approaches to make your packages -- both daily turns and long-form pieces -- more memorable. The Video Storytelling Workshop starts at 10 a.m. EST on Saturday, September 25. The host is Al Tompkins, Senior Faculty/Broadcast and Online at The Poynter Institute and author of the daily online journalism story idea column, Al's Morning Meeting, on Poynter.org.
