This past week we delved into choosing a story pitch idea and learned about media law and ethics. I thought it was a really good breakdown to summarize and reinforce some of the concepts I’m learning about in my 494 class as well. Morality can be such a grey area when it comes to certain situations where what’s “right” isn’t always clearly evident.
I’m also excited to start working on my story idea covering the homelessness crisis in San Diego. I feel like I’ve known about a lot of different resources and been involved in community outreach for a while but this is the first time I’ll one be able to dive into behind the scenes and talk to people running the operation. I’m looking forward to putting to the work the skills I’m learning about in my photojournalism class as well in order to put together a photo essay.
