Blogging buddy Terry White (in the blue shirt, in the middle of the photo) was recently in the Central African Republic (CAR) teaching journalism and writing to African Christians. He writes,
Didier (from France) is teaching illustration and scenario publishing. Jean (from France) is teaching photography and principles of composition and how to use digital cameras. Jules (from Ivory Coast) is speaking to the particulars of publishing in Africa and writing for small booklets and books.
My role is to work through a magazine article curriculum with those who are interested in this aspect–today we talked through how to do a personality feature and the personal experience article, and we talked about possible article ideas they generated over the weekend. Tomorrow morning we’ll be working on how to conduct interviews and do pre-article research. Greg Burgess is translating everything I say into French.
Sounds like some fantastic training going on! Terry has posted a number of updates with photos on the Brethren Missionary Herald blog, if you’d like to read more.
