Basic
Digital Photojournalism VIDEO
The images captured by press
photographers enhance newspaper, magazine, or Internet news stories by depicting
newsworthy events and by conveying emotion or mood. For example, a school's team may be
competing for the state championship. If the excitement of the story can be heightened by
a powerful photograph, the school paper may run the story on the front page of the next
issue. This image will connect the readers with the event in a way that mere words cannot.
Photojournalists typically use a series of photographic images to present a story
primarily through the use of pictures rather than text. A digital camera can become an
effective tool used by both basic photographers and photojournalists, to capture
high-quality images, to manipulate them easily and inexpensively, and to efficiently
produce a print-ready product.
