What is Photojournalism? How do you define photojournalism? How is it different than photography? What types of photos do you usually see or expect to see in the newspaper? Why is anyone interested in photojournalism?

Defining Photojournalism (A bit outdated) Photojournalism is an area of photography dedicated to taking accurate shots of current events. (i.e. non-fiction; no manipulations or alterations; represent reality) Mission: take pictures to accompany a news story Goal: the pictures should capture the reader’s attention and emotion to entice him to continue reading about the story The main difference is intent: pictures of things vs. pictures which tell a story

Defining Photojournalism (More ideal, and more pragmatic) Photojournalism is a field of photography focused on depicting subjects in such a way that fully and clearly explains them. Relevance to current events/topics of discussion is nice, not necessary. Purpose: use images to articulate a story Goal: inform the viewer as much about the story as possible The main difference is intent: photography generally aims for aesthetics; photojournalism aims for storytelling Most pressing question: What is the story?

Photographer vs. Photojournalist (Berkeley Marine Center Protest) Photojournalist: "There were many protestors and police at the event." Photographer: "Ooh, pretty flags!" Good photojournalist: "Antiwar and pro-marine protestors clash." Conflict is the essence of this story.

Photographer vs. Photojournalist (Obama Presidential Inauguration) Good photojournalist captures the essence of the story: Hope/Inspiration Photographer: "This woman has an interesting hat." Photojournalist: "Presidential inauguration on TV; lots of people came to watch."
