This class serves as an introductory course in photojournalism methods and conventions for students who’ve achieved “advanced beginner” status, at least. Through demonstrations and exercises, students will learn about the camera techniques that are best suited to the situations a photojournalist will be assigned to cover: breaking news, the scheduled news event, the feature situation, sports, and the portrait.
