On the deaths of two photojournalists in Libya

“Chris and Tim are at sea now, heading toward Benghazi, which means, in the indirect but solemn ways that the fallen travel from battlefields, that they are heading home.”

Daniel Sato is one of a circle of photojournalists I met at San Jose State University while I was spending a lot of time there working on my (still-but-not-for-long) unfinished graduate degree.

Now that whole crew has spread out from the Bay Area across the country and in at least two cases, into Southeast Asia.

Here’s Daniel’s latest post about his work for a school in Bali.  The looks-like-fun experimental flip book audio slideshow is embedded below as a video:

Waite Park Family Fun Festival – Daniel Sato

“The second in many festivals in the St. Cloud area. The soundslides wasn’t part of the assignment, but I thought I would try and get some practice in.” – That’s right – some of us do this just for fun.

Photojournalists at ‘The Sun’ Launch Protest ‘Strike’ – E&P

Fisking myself in advance: I mentioned in a podcast recorded last night that some photographers were byline-striking over being asked to learn video; it’s actually over reporters shooting stills and video. Which is one notch less dumb.
