New one-day workshops will focus on Photoshop, Web tools

For those of you who don’t have time to come to one of our three-day workshops we’ve got a new option. The Center will now be offering one-day “boot camps” and the first two will tackle topics that always pique the interest of our workshop participants: Photoshop and using the Internet.

Below is a flyer for the first boot camp, which will be led by Broc Sears on August 1. Broc will devote an entire day to Photoshop tricks and best practices. The cost will be $40 for those who pay early and $50 for those who pay upon arrival.

I’ll be leading the second boot camp on August 8, which will tackle how to use the Internet for reporting, and how to use the Internet to engage readers.

I’ll be talking about how to search the Web, what can you do with social media and finish off the day with a rapid fire session where we’ll tackle any question you have related to the World Wide Web and community journalism. And, best of all, it’ll all be done with free tools that you can use straight out of your Web browser — no special software required.
