Join Us as We Discuss the Power of Video Journalism in these Dangerous Times

Many journalists today are expected to do their storytelling through video as much as the printed word.

Join WITNESS Senior Program Manager Priscila Neri and a panel of experts on October 18 in New York City as they lead a seminar to provide a toolkit so that beginners can learn, and video experts can brush up on, what’s involved. It will offer technology tips and provide links to useful tools; discuss how video journalism differs from print, including ethical responsibilities; and show the power of video in changing the narrative.

Other panelists include:

Erica Anderson, Erica Anderson, lead for U.S. partnerships with News Lab at Google. She will talk about the tools that Google provides to verify the authenticity of videos that journalists use from third parties.

Sara Obeidat, a co-producer at Rain Media working on films for FRONTLINE, including Inside Yemen, Separated and The Pension Gamble, which will be coming out in October. She also is the Enterprise Fellow at FRONTLINE.

The moderator will be OPC Secretary Paula Dwyer of Bloomberg News.
