NPPAOU Newsletter: March 22, 2023
Join us this Thursday, March 23, for a presentation by Krisanne Johnson
Hello everyone,
We hope you had an extraordinary Spring Break and feel refreshed and ready for the rest of the semester. Our meeting for tonight is canceled, but we hope you can make it to Krisanne Johnson’s lecture tomorrow night (3/23) at 7 p.m. in Schoonover 145.
Over the break, some of our members went to Northern Short Course to learn about the industry and connect with working professionals. At the event, our faculty advisor Sue Morrow was honored with the NPPA Presidents Award! This award is given at the discretion of the NPPA President for special services and support rendered to NPPA. We would like to congratulate Sue on this incredible accomplishment!
We are also excited to announce that Ohio University VisCom alumna Krisanne Johnson will be coming to visit on March 22-25 for a workshop sponsored by Canon! We are working with VisCom to create a list of events for all photojournalism students while she is here. So far we have portfolio reviews planned, Canon equipment demos, a presentation by Krisanne, and a Friday interactive documentary photography workshop led by Krisanne.
Please sign up for an interactive documentary photography workshop on Friday led by Krisanne Friday 8:30 am-11:30 am for upperclassmen and the afternoon from 2 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. for underclassmen.
We continue our yearly tradition of creating a zine of our NPPA chapter’s work! Here is a link to submit work to be a part of this year’s zine! Check out the zines from the past two years here!
As always, please submit your images here to be featured in next week’s newsletter and on our Instagram. The images should include captions, a filename with your first and last name, and align with the NPPA Code of Ethics we always hold ourselves to as a professional organization. We didn’t receive any submissions last week, so feel free to upload images you’ve made in the past two weeks. We’re excited to see and share your work!
