From Phoenix First Fridays to Glendale history

So much content makes it onto the Web with nary a peep of response.But recently, a dozen ASU students got a response in a big way: They beat out scores of other co-eds from schools across the region in a contest for best online multimedia feature and news stories. The groups were honored in the Society of Professional Journalists’ “Mark of Excellence” event in Tucson April 12.

These kids worked hard all semester to wrap their brains around four months worth software and multimedia gear. How do I know this, you might ask? Because, as their professor, I watched them go from print/broadcast reporters to multimedia rockstars.

Congratulations to Veronica Graves, Ashley Hope, Jordan Jurkowitz, Katarina Kovasevic and Michael Struening for a story on the evolution of Glendale; and Casey Kelsey, Adrian Barrera, Jorden Allen, Heather Kucenski and Patricia Borja for a story on First Fridays in Phoenix.
