Jon Resnick, Donna Cassata and other editors from the Associated Press explain what they’re looking for in a pitch for a video story. Basically: Do your homework, know why the story’s newsy, describe characters, write tight.
It’s solid advice for any pitch. Watch below.
I was asked to design a logo and website for video journalist Travis Fox, whose “10 Golden Rules for Video Journalists” continues to be a popular post on this blog.
The site’s been in soft launch, but as of last night, it’s now fully operational, with new “Films” pages, showcasing Travis’s work for The Washington Post, Frontline and other outlets.
Since some of you have asked, the site fonts are served by Typekit.
