Learn tricks and tips for telling stories on mobile apps.
join the Journalism and Women Symposium, Southern California (JAWS SoCal) and the Online News Association, Los Angeles (ONA LA) for this special program.
WORKSHOP
This beginner’s workshop will have attendees out and about and shooting with apps such as Anchor, Instagram, Periscope, Snapchat and Vine. It’s a great opportunity for those who have never used these apps before to learn the basics. Social media leads will give some tips/instructions and examples to start off, then offer an ‘assignment’ to the group that will allow you to use some of the different basic features of the app. During the activity, we’ll provide advice and answer questions, genius-bar style.
We request that attendees come with their phones charged and have signed up with an account on the app they want to try out. When RSVPing, be sure to note down the app you want to learn – attendees are limited to one app during the workshop portion.
Panel
The panel will be an opportunity to review what was discussed in the small groups and also address some questions.
