Survey of newspaper VJs

Top VJ  David Dunkley Gyimah contacted me today because he’s carrying out a survey of newspaper journalists turned VJs.

He’s looking at how much take up of video there has been among regional newspapers and the sort of experiences that VJs are having when they return from their training to actually do the job in a newsroom.

He says: “Their names/backgrounds will be kept anonymous, so if you are a VJ and our paths have crossed I’d love you to get involved.”

The responses will be collected into a powerpoint (which I hope to be able to share at some point) as part of a WAN presentation in Sweden next week, but for now you can find out more  at his informative blog here.

    Thanks plenty Sarah

    I’m getting some good feedback which should be of interest to many Vjs and managers. And yes If I can stress it is Chatham House rules ( which I am a member of, ie Chouse, so I do honour the code).

    The VJ evolution is taking some interesting turns, with managers and clients now seeking something a bit more programme orientated, so aside from the survey I’ll be compiling a few articles which have involved talking to a number of figures, from the Telegraph, BBC’s Peter Horrocks, Croydon Advertiser, FT and a host of regional newspapers.

    I’ll keep you posted.

    thanks again
