“Carrier of the Economy” is praised in Poynter courses for video journalism. I watched it as part of my online training for AAJA Voices this past summer. Until then, I never truly appreciated just how deliberate every shot is to the final package.
I had the pleasure of meeting the videographer, Brian Kaufman from the Detroit Free Press, at the AAJA National Convention. He took the time to help out in the newsroom, including coaching me through my first individual project with Final Cut Pro. How cool is that? It isn’t every day you meet a three time Emmy award-winning journalist, especially one so down to earth and friendly.
