Back To Maine

I'm happy to be back on the schedule for the 2011 Maine Media Workshops. I will teach multimedia distribution June 26-July 2 in Rockport. 

Visual storytelling is no longer confined to one screen, TV networks or even websites. The work we create and the stories we tell can be seen on smartphones, iPads, flat screen touch panels at trades shows -- the possibilities are growing every month.

Journalists have never before had the number of outlets to publish media available to us today. We'll cover exporting workflows, including Quicktime compression, Flash formats and streaming video. The class will look at the incorporation of content into websites and basic DVD authoring.

We'll also take a stab at Design, typography and branding and they apply to publishing and self-promotion. Additionally, students will learn how social networking sites like Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn can bolster the visibility of documentary work.
