A busy week ahead

What with my Columbia students going full blast into their final projects, and me traveling to Germany for a keynote presentation at the Newscamp 2018 event in Ausburg, it’s plenty to do this week.

As those who read TheMarioBlog know, I just came back home to New York City from Berlin.

And after recharging the batteries, getting laundry done and checking on my NYC apartment, I start Monday doing some individualized coaching for my Columbia students in the Multiplatform Design & Storytelling course, as they prepare to show me the outline of their final project: a multi media story that will be handled in a linear way.

Each student will present me with a pencil sketch of how  he/she would combine the narrative with visual assets. In addition, all students will do their final presentation using a template which includes ways to promote their stories via  push notifications, Twitter , Snapchat,, etc.

Soon after class I will head out to the JFK Airport to fly to Europe and land in Munich Tuesday. as I prepare to deliver the keynote presentation for Newscamp 2018 in Ausburg.  My topic is Digital Ideas for the Future of News Media.

Will be reporting about these events in the days to come. Starting tomorrow: Report from Newscamp 2018.

May all of you have a wonderful week ahead.
