Building Empathy through VR Journalism: Talk and Demo

Virtual Reality gives journalists new opportunities to transport audiences into the worlds of the people we cover.

Web Journalist Robert Hernandez, USC Associate Professor of Professional Practice, will share strategizes for VR Journalism followed by hands-on (eyes-on?) demos of VR Journalism projects. http://www.jovrnalism.io/

We will have appetizers starting at 6:30 p.m. if you want to come early to network.

The talk and demos will start at 7 p.m. in Santa Monica College's Center for Media and Design Auditorium Room 180. It's across the courtyard from KCRW.

Metered street parking is available in the evenings.

Come for any or all of the event.
