Journalism.co.uk’s next news:rewired event will take place on 3 February at MSN’s London offices in Victoria.
What’s it about?
news:rewired – media in motion will look at the latest tools, strategies and approaches in online journalism and the use of digital technologies for innovative news production, with a focus on social and mobile developments.
Sessions at the one-day conference will cover:
- the opportunities for online video and ways to take better advantage of the medium
- bringing newsgames and gaming mechanics into news coverage
- the timing and structure of social media output
- successes and innovative approaches in mobile reporting
- building coherent multi-platform strategies for delivering content across print, web, tablet and smartphone apps
