Photojournalist Degree
-
Hi
Im am nearly finished my degree in Automotive management and technology. Now I want to go and study to be a photojournalist.
I would love to make a career in photography with Sports being my favourite at the moment. Im only 21 so have all the time in the world to learn.
As a hobbie I created a site called http://www.freshfix.net.
Can anyone help me out or point me in the right direction with what options I have or maybe courses out there.
Many Thanks
Martin
For sport and photojournalism, get out and start shooting. Build up a portfolio, and then approach the editors of the papers. Start with local papers, before you think about the nationals.
There are few jobs in that field, and you will have to work very very hard.
Thanks for the reply Paul. I suppose the trouble is I dont know whats the best way to create a Portfolio or what photos are my best?
marty, your site is your portfolio, so are the shots from the K1 you done last year, and whatever else youve been doing, like the odd one or 2 of john doing his running,
what you think are good shots are what go into a portfolio.
Hi,
Yeah I think Griffith College in Dublin do a Photojournalism/ Media Degree – Full time and Part time. Just out of interest, what program did you use to design your website?
