Faced with a complete oversupply of content, in the end they mainly ask one question: why should I spend my precious time watching this right now? And I think you should have an answer to that. Why should people watch this? How can I offer them added value? How do I get away from just saying \u2018look at this, it\u2019s great\u2019 and towards the question: what can I actually give people? And how can I give them something that I enjoy doing myself?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"post__paragraph is-style-typo--soehne has-spacing--xs\"><br><strong><strong>How can you tell stories in a way that suits a platform without losing your journalistic and documentary attitude?<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"post__paragraph has-spacing--xs\">I love the word \u2018attitude\u2019, because without it the whole thing doesn\u2019t work. After that, you can talk about the specifics of each platform. People often talk as if this were something completely new and you now had to do everything strictly according to a particular platform logic. But if you take a step back, you realise that platform specifics have always existed. Audio and radio worked differently from television, and television differently from YouTube. If you look at it on a meta level, you might become a little less dogmatic and more relaxed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"post__paragraph has-spacing--xs\">Then you can ask yourself: what does a platform mean in concrete terms? On TikTok I definitely need a hook; I have to draw people in somehow, I have to give them something. But that doesn\u2019t mean everything has to be cut super fast. I\u2019m firmly convinced that content also needs room to breathe and live \u2013 fast and slow. In the end, the form has to fit the content. If I report on a funeral, I tell the story differently than if I report on a skateboarding world championship.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-spacing--default\">\n<div class=\"pinned-block has-spacing--m\">\n\t\n\n<div class=\"pinned-block__column--left\">\n    \n\n<p class=\"post__paragraph is-style-typo--soehne has-spacing--xs\"><strong><strong><strong><strong>What role does documentary photography play at a time when many platforms favour video?<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"post__paragraph is-style-default has-spacing--xs\">That\u2019s an exciting point. Of course I should always look for the medium that best suits my work. And photography isn\u2019t only challenged by short videos. Beyond that, we are currently in a broader period of upheaval, because with generative AI and synthetic media we are in an age that is shaking up a great deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"post__paragraph has-spacing--default\">Still, I believe people want to see good documentary pictures and good documentary videos as much as ever. I don\u2019t see any contradiction there at all. Photos and moving images go hand in hand. You just have to be aware that the way people use platforms like TikTok is different. It isn\u2019t: I go to a museum, sit down in front of a picture and look at it at leisure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"post__paragraph has-spacing--default\">On the other hand, this very closeness to lived reality is something that suits such platforms. That\u2019s why, for me, the two are not mutually exclusive at all. It\u2019s more about finding your own approach and experimenting with it, so that you can then make an informed decision: yes, this is how I do it \u2013 or I\u2019d rather do it on paper.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"pinned-block__column--right\">\n    \n    <figure class=\"block-photo post__image--full has-spacing--m no-title\">\n\n        <div class=\"post__image__container\">\n            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" \n                src=\"https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/260327_hsh_digital-storytelling-106-1400x2105.jpg\"\n                srcset=\"https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/260327_hsh_digital-storytelling-106-1400x2105.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/260327_hsh_digital-storytelling-106-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/260327_hsh_digital-storytelling-106-681x1024.jpg 681w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/260327_hsh_digital-storytelling-106-768x1155.jpg 768w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/260327_hsh_digital-storytelling-106-1022x1536.jpg 1022w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/260327_hsh_digital-storytelling-106-1362x2048.jpg 1362w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/260327_hsh_digital-storytelling-106-1050x1578.jpg 1050w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/260327_hsh_digital-storytelling-106-670x1007.jpg 670w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/260327_hsh_digital-storytelling-106-420x631.jpg 420w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/260327_hsh_digital-storytelling-106-350x526.jpg 350w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/260327_hsh_digital-storytelling-106-300x451.jpg 300w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/260327_hsh_digital-storytelling-106-150x225.jpg 150w, https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/260327_hsh_digital-storytelling-106.jpg 1663w\"\n                width=\"1400\" \n                height=\"2105\"\n                alt=\"\" \n            \/>\n            \n                    <\/div><!-- post__image__container -->\n\n        \n    <\/figure><!-- post__image -->\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"post__paragraph is-style-typo--soehne has-spacing--xs\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"devider has-spacing--none\">\n    <hr>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"pinned-block has-spacing--m\">\n\t\n\n<div class=\"pinned-block__column--left\">\n    \n\n \n    \n    <div id=\"quote-block_750f203b375e383a6c8455eaf3565208\" class=\"block-quote has-spacing--m\">\n        <figure class=\"quote\">\n            <blockquote>\n                <p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>So: just do it.<\/strong> Don\u2019t let fear make you censor yourself before you\u2019ve even started.<\/span><\/p>\n            <\/blockquote>\n\n            <figcaption>\n\n                            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"portrait--inline\" src=\"https:\/\/visualjournalism.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/260327_hsh_boesch_portraets-1-2-52x52.jpg\" width=\"52\" height=\"52\" alt=\"Marcus B\u00f6sch, portrait\" \/>\n                            <span>Marcus B\u00f6sch<\/span>\n            <\/figcaption>\n            \n        <\/figure>\n    <\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"pinned-block__column--right\">\n    \n\n<p class=\"post__paragraph is-style-typo--soehne has-spacing--xs\"><strong><strong><strong>Which skills or qualities should students acquire to succeed in visual journalism, or in journalism generally?<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"post__paragraph has-spacing--xs\">That\u2019s a great question, because frankly I think all these discussions about everyone now having to be able to do everything are nonsense. Today you\u2019re supposed to be able to do this, tomorrow that, and the day after an AI might do it anyway \u2013 or you work with people who are better at certain things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"post__paragraph has-spacing--default\">I think old-school qualities are more important. One is curiosity. And, linked to that, knowing how to work things out for yourself. If I know how to get to grips with something and enjoy doing it, that\u2019s a skill that outlasts passing trends. Then I can do it all my life, even as media formats come and go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"post__paragraph has-spacing--xs\">Then there is attitude \u2013 also in the sense of not becoming bitter. When you notice that something is difficult or that things aren\u2019t going the way you imagined, you have to ask yourself how you deal with it. And finally you need a certain persistence: the ability not to say \u2018better not\u2019 at the first breath of wind, but to stick with it, keep pushing things and see whether you might get somewhere after all. In the end, this mix may last longer than purely technical skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"post__paragraph is-style-typo--soehne has-spacing--xs\"><strong>What would you advise students for the next few semesters and for starting their careers?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"post__paragraph has-spacing--default\">Go for coffee, talk to people, exchange ideas, build networks. And simply write people an email now and then \u2013 editors-in-chief, newsrooms. Show genuine interest. Many people are friendlier than you might think. So: just do it. Don\u2019t let fear make you censor yourself before you\u2019ve even started.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n \n\n<div class=\"photo-grid grid-layout--3col has-spacing--m\">\n\n            \n\n
