Prepare the apology or acknowledgement for event photojournalism that is credible.
Building Photojournalism Skills for Major Events
Develop the judgement and the documentation needed to run event photojournalism properly.
Course Overview
Silence during a crisis involving event photojournalism is itself a statement. Internal audiences learn about this strand of communications and media practice from the news unless you reach them first. Benchmarking exercises repeatedly place the communications and media practice capability among the areas with the widest performance spread. Cases are chosen to expose the trade-offs in event photojournalism rather than to illustrate ideal conditions. Plans for this strand of communications and media practice often fail at the handover point between functions. It concentrates on the parts of this part of communications and media practice that determine outcomes and treats the rest proportionately. The content is relevant to those who own event photojournalism and to those who are held accountable for its results. Participants finish able to explain this aspect of communications and media practice to a non-specialist audience without losing precision. The final module sets out how progress on the practice within communications and media practice will be evidenced six months later.
