Abstract

New media technology provides the visual communication academy the opportunity to distance itself from the fractured, ancillary, and skills connotation associated with the field in the past. The concept of “visual journalism” in its integrative sense aimed at training the “complete visual journalist,” provides an opportunity for visual communication to develop an integrated and unified identity, reinvigorate itself, and locate its study at the center of journalism education. It allows the visual academy to create a more integrated conception of the field that is also made more germane to contemporary enterprise of journalism. If cashed-in, the concept should help visual communication overcome its supporting role to take a more central position in journalism education.
