The most successful freelancers create their own mark, using social media, a particular reporting niche, speaking engagements, books and other tools in keeping their careers moving. Learn how to reinvigorate your use of these tools and expand your reach into documentary writing and editing. Speakers will talk through collaborating to take your print work to film, thinking visually instead of solely in print from the beginning of a project, generating business buzz through social media, and fitting your magnified skill set into your career.
