Anotace - angličtina
Course Post-Digital Photojournalism is introducing the current situation of visual journalism. With the rise of digital technologies, theoreticians started to describe the era as post-photographic, as the death of traditional photography. Now, twenty years later it is obvious, that visual messages are more powerful than ever. This course will introduce today's condition of visual journalism. Students will learn about the transition from traditional, film-based photography to digital imaging, to the current post-digital condition. Part of the course are also practical assignments, which will help to better understand the nature of problems introduced in theoretical lectures. Students will use traditional photo equipment, DSLRs, mobile photojournalism, drone journalism, VR journalism.
