is being a photojournalist a good job?
like tell me anything you know about it =]
i know you have to go to college for it, and that's why i'm trying to find out about it now.
i googled it and it didn't say much of what it actually is. i think i know but just please give me any info you know on it. any links to websites would be great too =]
and what should i do now to like prepare, like what highschool classes should i take, should i get a camera now? what are some good kinds for this? etc.
Michele answered Friday August 10 2007, 6:18 pm: Well the best way to describe photo journalism is to read about the people who are famous for it. like the photographers for National Geographic Magazine. People who have won pulitzer prizes for their photos. Annie Liebowitz, Michael Ainsworth, DAvid Turnley. Oded Balilty. Or look at photographs that have won pulitzer prizes.
Check out these photos on the pulitzer website.
Yes you should get a camera as soon as possible, and if you stay in this field, it certainly won't be your first. I am not sure what college you should go to, but I know there are good ones in NYC, and probably all the big cities. Good luck to you, it is a great field to be in.
