Subject: how you've embraced video
Hi Everyone,
I’d like you know how much I have appreciated how well you’ve embraced our move into news video. Progress in the past couple of months especially has been fantastic.
From discussions in the daily morning news conference to the results on the AAP video website it’s plain to see that news video to accompany words and images is now a very natural and logical part of what we do.
The adaptability and will of AAP journalists and photographers doesn’t surprise me but never ceases to amaze me. We’ve just completed another round of multi-media training this week and as we reflect on the progress, it’s clear that you are becoming more confident. And there’s great innovation too.
The daily video commentary and analysis by Darren Walton, John Salvado and Ben Sutton at the Australian Tennis Open shows we have great talent in front of the camera.
But the bulk of what we do is behind it and you’re producing some top work. If you haven’t had a good look around the video website, I do encourage you to browse.
Here’s the registration URL should you need it (it’s very quick and easy):

But the links below are just a few of the highlights of your excellent work to date. There are plenty more excellent examples on the site.
