Class Revistas e Narrativas Digitais

Far removed from the fast pace and constant updates of news reporting, magazines remain a prime arena for slow journalism and in-depth reporting. In the digital environment, the narrative possibilities of magazines are multiplying and fostering the development of interconnected journalism, focused on bringing people together and combating populism, hate speech and social indifference. 'Magazines and Digital Narratives' is a project-based course that aims to equip students with the tools to create journalistic stories tailored to the world of digital magazines. Students acquire content production skills involving writing texts and creating visual and multimedia elements. The semester focuses on the development of an interconnected multimedia magazine feature.
