keith_lubow Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Hello, I would like to be able to come and view messages on a board that is frequentedby those interested in editorial photography. News, sports, entertainment,documentary, etc. It would be very educational talking about the modern-daytechnology, editing techniques, and workflows used by the news wire services,and just having a place to shoot the $#!* with other journalists. If there is interest, how do we go about starting the forum? I mean, there's anunderwater photography forum that is near dead, so it seems like there would beroom for something like this, especially considering how many photographers areinto shooting sports.

bennyboy Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 There're 2 forums that cover pretty much all of these areas already: photojournalism, and sports photography. Is there a significant proportion of subject matter that won't fit under those 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spearhead Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 There's really three, the Street & Documentary Forum also covers some of these topics (generally excluding sports.) Music and Portraits Blog: Life in Portugal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calebcondit Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Would also have to include fashion editorial and such. Then it would fill a gap in photonet. There is nothing attracting talented fashion, commercial, or lifestyle shooters right now. I just log on to learn about equipment or techniques. It would be nice to talk about concepts, how to get tests going with agencies, submitting work to magazines, ect. caleb calebcondit.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennyboy Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 Some of that information may be best conveyed in articles - might be worth contacting Bob Atkins (I think he looks after articles) if you'd like to contribute something. I know it's something I'd be very interested to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keith_lubow Posted June 10, 2006 Author Share Posted June 10, 2006 Hello, Didn't see the photojournalism forum because I didn't see the full list of forums, and I was looking for the word editorial, not photojournalism! My mistake. Delete this thread at will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
