Introduction

Lead the next generation of photojournalists with innovative storytelling The New Media Photojournalism program at the Corcoran School of the Arts and Design is the first of its kind, created to help visual journalists study and address the changing world of photojournalism. Emphasizing strong storytelling skills and fluency in multimedia platforms, the Master of Arts in New Media Photojournalism program incorporates writing, photography, audio, video, and web design to prepare students to work as freelancers, visual reporters, editors, and producers. The program emphasizes the individual as a visual reporter and encourages experimentation with new ways of storytelling, documentation, and editing. The program also encourages its students to explore the latest digital practices taught in conjunction with the enduring fundamentals of visual reporting, editing, and ethics. Through intensive faculty mentoring in conjunction with a broad and flexible program of study and internship opportunities, students choose and develop their professional paths. In addition to The Washington Post, National Public Radio, National Geographic and Discovery Communications, countless newspapers, magazines, trade journals, and major media outlets are located within a five-mile radius of Corcoran's downtown campus.

Department Life At the heart of the New Media Photojournalism program is a dynamic group of faculty and students who are highly motivated and engaged in their communities and professional lives. In 2011, the inaugural class of New Media Photojournalism program students founded the Corcoran Association of Photojournalists, known as CAP. Hosting various community events and projects, CAP has become an integral part of the photo world of Washington, D.C. Some of these include educational events and exhibits at THEARC, workshops in conjunction with Women Photojournalists of Washington (WPOW) and the Metro Collective, guest speakers, the launch of an annual 'zine, pop-up exhibits, and regular happy hours and other get-togethers. The New Media Photojournalism program benefits from multidisciplinary collaboration, learning and problem-solving. Students are active across the school through the organization and departmental curricula. New Media Photojournalism program students collaborate academically and through extracurricular activity on local, national and international projects with students from other disciplines such an Exhibition Design, Fine Art Photography, Digital Media and Graphic Design as well as a wide spectrum of the George Washington University’s academic programs and professional schools.
