AudioVision: Journalism + Instagram
When Southern California Public Radio began engaging their listeners’ eyes as well as their ears, they wanted to bring some fresh perspective to something a lot of people do every day: taking photos with a smartphone.
This week, three Instagrammers who share what they’re shooting when they’re on assignment. Live vicariously through:
Andrea Bruce. A member of NOOR, frequently on assignment for the New York Times. Latest shots are from Syria, Lebanon and Afghanistan.
David Yoder. A National Geographic shooter, not all of Yoder’s Instagram posts are taken with just an iPhone, but it’s fun to see what he’s shooting when he’s in the field.
David Guttenfelder. Associated Press chief Asia photographer, currently shooting from North Korea.
