Politics and Photography students enjoyed a workshop today run by David Campbell from the VII Foundation. The Foundation educates photographers on how to be ethical and safe when documenting dangerous situations (for example, wars and riots).
He talked us through a history of photojournalism and then showed us footage of the Storming of the Capitol in 2021, describing the experience of the photographers there. He then ran a smaller session exclusively for photographers on ethics and AI in photography. The talk was fascinating and the students had some excellent questions about the future of photojournalism.
Respect. Engage. Aspire.
