Event Details

MediaCamp Edmonton is an opportunity for the mainstream (or traditional) and social (or new) media to come together to interact and learn from one another. It's also an opportunity for people who know words and people who know code to help each other find new ways to tell stories - let's explore the future of storytelling together!

Best of all, the event is completely free!

As an unconference, we need you to help us set the agenda for the day. Here's what our rough outline looks like:

  • 10:00 AM - Kickoff!
  • 10:10 AM - Panel Discussion
  • 11:00 AM - Pitch your topics for the day!
  • 11:20 AM - First group of sessions
  • 12:00 PM - Second group of sessions
  • 12:30 PM - Lunch: on your own, see options here!
  • 1:45 PM -  Lightning Talks!
  • 2:45 PM - Third group of sessions
  • 3:15 PM - Fourth group of sessions
  • 3:45 PM - Wrap up!

Attendees determine the topics, so bring your ideas and questions. Some of the topics you're likely to see include:

  • What's a mash-up and how do I do one to tell a local story?
  • How social media is being used effectively by mainstream media 
  • Journalism best practices that need to be fostered in social media
  • How to get started with social media tools
  • Collaborating to tell better stories
  • What can journalists do with open data, and how?
  • Why journalism is more than storytelling

We're using the #yegmediacamp hashtag on Twitter.

Hope to see you there!
