Workshop shows how to create compelling visuals to tell a story

BRATTLEBORO — Learn the tips and tricks about the art of imagery and storytelling from photojournalism experts at a panel discussion, “A Photo Is Worth a Thousand Words,” sponsored by Vermont Independent Media's Media Mentoring Project, which will take place on Wednesday, March 1 at 7 p.m., via Zoom.

Hear what Kris Radder, photographer/videographer for the Brattleboro Reformer; Kelly Fletcher, documentary photographer; and Ziagul Azimi, journalist/executive for Afghan Women News Agency (AWNA) have to say. Together they will coach workshop participants in how to craft images and video that tell a compelling story.

Subject matter will include: choosing a compelling topic, angles and framing, light, color, composition, and capturing images in volatile situations.

This is the first of MMP's spring programs that will continue on Zoom and Facebook live with assistance from Brattleboro Community Television (BCTV).

Joyce Marcel, writer of award-winning cover stories for Vermont Business Magazine and a frequent contributor to The Commons, will moderate.
