Applications are now being accepted for the Mountain Workshops, taking place this year in Danville, KY. Applicants can choose from one of three tracks: The Photojournalism Workshop, The Picture Editing Workshop, or The Multimedia Workshop. All three tracks are sure to provide a great experience. All of the Workshops start on October 17, and spaces are limited (The Multimedia Workshop only has 8 open spots, so if you’re interested get your information in soon.) Faculty for 2007 Photojournalism Workshop includes Renee Byer, Rick Loomis, Mary Calvert, Josh Meltzer, Jonathan Newton, and Charles Bertram.

While The Mountain Workshops have had a multimedia staff and produced several pieces over the last several years, this is the first year that there is a Workshop track specifically focusing on Multimedia. The Multimedia Workshop is designed to be an advanced training opportunity focusing on content gathering and narrative. Participants will work one-on-one with coaches and the support team. Canon HDV cameras will be available during the workshop, but still photography and audio will be the main focus of the multimedia projects. The coaches for the Multimedia Workshop are Colin Mulvaney and Joe Weiss, with the professional support team of Bob Sacha, Rob Finch, Chad Stevens, Ken Harper, Tim Broekema, Justin Winter and Carrie Pratt.
