In this based course, students will reinterpret the role of the visual journalist in the transmedia era. The class will interpret the theme " personal political" and blur boundaries across disciplines to develop a layered practice that allows for deeper communication and understanding of a documentary subject. Students will work both independently and as collaborators to collect and most effectively produce content that will include still and moving images, sound, text, and ephemera of all varieties. Students will ground their explorations in literature, scholarly articles, and the historical evolution of the digital media form. This class is strongly recommended for all Journalism + Design majors. This course satisfies the Form Elective requirement for the Journalism+Design major.
