The 2011 Society for News Design conference
September 29, 2011 to October 01, 2011
Registration for SND STL will cost $300 until April 30; after that the price rises. So the sooner you act, the less you'll spend to hear keynote speakers like Dave Gray of Explane, and Rob King of ESPN.
You can register for the conference online or browse the conference website to learn more.
The craft of journalism is too often driven by the journalists themselves by their own standards of what is important and worthy. Designers have long been the people in newsrooms speaking up for the near-mythical audience asking questions about how to make content accessible, whether the main points of a story are clear and how readers will be encouraged to act on the information they're given.
These days, key audience questions are much more complicated than is there an infobox with that?. How are users finding our content? On what device are they viewing it? What do they need from it? How are they using it? These things can be known, and they should be used to guide most newsroom decisions, from story format to staffing priorities.
Venue: The Renaissance Grand Hotel
Location: 800 Washington Ave. St. Louis
