Video Journalism: Opportunities for Growth
Video Journalist Resources on IJNet
IJNet is a unique source for finding tips from experts in the field, fellowships to fine-tune your skills, free or online classes and resources for video journalists to network across the globe. For example, in a four-part guide on shooting videos and photos, Jarod Phillips shares details on how to frame your shots and understanding how to use the light you have by arranging the angle, the camera settings and the mix of color and white balance.
Follow trends revealed in the posts and comments of professionals in the field. As technology makes it increasingly easier for journalists to work remotely, more and more editors are equipping mobile journalists or “mojos,” with tools to work outside the newsroom. Smartphones can record audio, shoot video, create a document and send the story – even from your car. Learn more about how to take advantage of these mobile and opportunities for video journalism with articles posted to IJNet.
In a new video on its YouTube journalism training channel, [IJNet Video](http://www.youtube.com/ijnetvideo), IJNet shows journalists how to use Google Maps within an online story and why it can be useful to readers and viewers. Journalism training categories/playlists are continually updated to provide insights and tips to professional and citizen journalists. We’re interested in including training videos from our members and welcome you to send us a comment on our YouTube channel. Our goal is to provide a valuable and up-to-date resource for all our members across the world.
