The Alexia Fall Workshop is a space for Newhouse visual communications students to identify, observe and communicate multimedia stories while strengthening their skills in still photography, audio, video, motion graphics, design and more. The annual workshop, held this year from Oct. 12-15, brought in top professionals—including Pulitzer Prize and award-winning photographers and visual editors from The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times and The Washington Post—to coach students through their projects.
