<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>This time the nominees list isn&#8217;t that different from previous editions, there are names credited in different projects that have been regularly present. This means the best are still the same, and they are few.  I expected a bit more variety, but since I know some of these talented people I&#8217;m happy for them. The question is: why there isn&#8217;t more competition?<br />
</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>There are also differences in the projects running: more multimedia and interactivity, using more screen real estate, and better design and UX. </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>For those of you who want to risk it and navigate through online Portuguese news projects, here&#8217;s the list below, and if you like, <a href="http://obciber.wordpress.com/2011/12/02/votacao-para-premios-de-ciberjornalismo-2011/" target="_blank" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/obciber.wordpress.com/2011/12/02/votacao-para-premios-de-ciberjornalismo-2011/?referer=');">vote on your favorites</a>.<br />

<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong></strong><strong>A lista de nomeados não é muito diferente das  edições anteriores, e os nomes presentes nos créditos dos trabalhos repetem-se. Isto significa que os melhores são os mesmos e são poucos. Esperava maior variedade, mas como conheço algumas destas pessoas talentosas fico contente por eles. A pergunta que se impõe é porque é que não há mais concorrência?<br />
</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong></strong><strong>Há também algumas diferenças nos trabalhos a concurso: mais multimédia e interactividade, a ocupar mais área no ecrã, e com melhor design e usabilidade. </strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For my MA report, I conducted a small survey about multimedia production in Portuguese newsrooms, and although it is not statistically relevant (only 13 responded), it was answered by some of the most important media companies in Portugal, including two reference national  dailies and two major TV networks.</p>
<p>The results do not fall far from the expected: there isn’t still a solid investment in the newsrooms to create and publish multimedia/interactive content, in spite of the desire to do so, mainly because they lack the skilled professionals to do so.</p>
<p>Point by point here are the conclusions reached with the survey:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.alexgamela.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/1-Produ%C3%A7%C3%A3o-externa-de-conte%C3%BAdos-multim%C3%A9dia-Google-Docs_1314982419582.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-11499" title="1 -  Multimedia contents in Portugal" src="http://www.alexgamela.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/1-Produ%C3%A7%C3%A3o-externa-de-conte%C3%BAdos-multim%C3%A9dia-Google-Docs_1314982419582.png" alt="1 - Multimedia contents in Portugal" width="633" height="425" /></a></p>
<p>Confronted with the importance of multimedia in today’s news practice they all consider it is at least important but most don’t have the habit of producing them. This may be explained by the insufficient staff available to create them, many times overlapping functions as page makers, and the habit of only use in house production.</p>
<p>Most of the interactive content that comes from external sources is created by LUSA, the national news agency, which sells exclusive infographics or retail videos.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.alexgamela.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/3-Produ%C3%A7%C3%A3o-externa-de-conte%C3%BAdos-multim%C3%A9dia-Google-Docs_1314982465053.png"><br />
</a><a href="http://www.alexgamela.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/2-Produ%C3%A7%C3%A3o-externa-de-conte%C3%BAdos-multim%C3%A9dia-Google-Docs_1314982446132.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-11500" title="2 - Multimedia contents Portugal" src="http://www.alexgamela.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/2-Produ%C3%A7%C3%A3o-externa-de-conte%C3%BAdos-multim%C3%A9dia-Google-Docs_1314982446132.png" alt="2 - Multimedia contents Portugal" width="630" height="416" /></a>As you can see in the following chart, the types of content are mostly very simple to produce, being photo galleries and videos the most common. Very few take the time to build their own multimedia packages, but these have increased significantly in the last years in other brands that did not respond to the survey, some of them featuring multimedia packages on a regular basis.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.alexgamela.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/3-Produ%C3%A7%C3%A3o-externa-de-conte%C3%BAdos-multim%C3%A9dia-Google-Docs_1314982465053.png"><img title="3 Multimedia content Portugal" src="http://www.alexgamela.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/3-Produ%C3%A7%C3%A3o-externa-de-conte%C3%BAdos-multim%C3%A9dia-Google-Docs_1314982465053.png" alt="3 Multimedia content Portugal" width="502" height="438" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>When asked if their companies were interested in buying content created by others, the answers were quite conservative. It is understandable that they wish to have control over the process despite paradoxically they don’t produce multimedia content due to staff limitations.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.alexgamela.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/4-Produ%C3%A7%C3%A3o-externa-de-conte%C3%BAdos-multim%C3%A9dia-Google-Docs_1314985628672.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-11502" title="4 multimedia content Portugal" src="http://www.alexgamela.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/4-Produ%C3%A7%C3%A3o-externa-de-conte%C3%BAdos-multim%C3%A9dia-Google-Docs_1314985628672.png" alt="4 multimedia content Portugal" width="625" height="442" /></a></p>
<p>And how much they would be willing to pay for a basic multimedia package?   The example given was one with 4 videos plus an interactive chart. Most of them indicated the usual price range here in Portugal for this type of products, between 75 to 150€. This is clearly insufficient, even if we look at it as a one-man-band endeavour. To make them profitable, these packages would have to be made in a 10 to 15 hour period, and have at least 10 orders per month.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m currently producing a similar package and first video only took 7 working hours total (it was more than that but i&#8217;m not counting with hardware glitches).</p>
<p>But the idea of acquiring multimedia kits, which by definition would be pieces that could be assembled and adapted to each newsroom’s editorial and design guidelines, was more appealing. Again, the issue of control over news content creation is present.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.alexgamela.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/5-Produ%C3%A7%C3%A3o-externa-de-conte%C3%BAdos-multim%C3%A9dia-Google-Docs_1314982514135.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-11503" title="5 Multimedia Content  Portugal" src="http://www.alexgamela.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/5-Produ%C3%A7%C3%A3o-externa-de-conte%C3%BAdos-multim%C3%A9dia-Google-Docs_1314982514135.png" alt="5 Multimedia Content  Portugal" width="437" height="282" /></a></p>
<p>I also asked for their insights about the need for multimedia production in Portuguese newsrooms and the answers were pretty similar: many agreed that though multimedia content is important “newsrooms aren’t ready enough to operate them” and “there isn’t enough money to invest in external production”.</p>
<p>This seems to be a structural problem within news organizations, as pointed out by others: there is a lot of interest in the newsrooms in multimedia contents, finding them valuable “from an editorial point of view” and as a support for their text stories.</p>
<p>However, “because of the unpreparedness of the professionals, or by having the need to recruit new staff or acquire external content, it will be difficult to persuade administrations of the importance of those contents, mainly because websites haven’t been able to impose a profitable business model”.</p>
<p>The idea that media administrations are reluctant to invest in multimedia was also reinforced in other answers.</p>
<p>So, as a freelancer, things don&#8217;t seem that bright for me. And all I can say from first hand experience is that there is a strong will to produce multimedia content in portuguese newsrooms. They just don&#8217;t have the time or the money in most of them.</p>
<p>What do you make of this picture? Let me know in the comments.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>If evidence that one solution does not fit all was needed, let&#8217;s just take a look at the online subscribers numbers in Portugal. So, you think a paywall will do?</strong></p>
<p>These are the newspapers and magazines that adopted a online subscription model, none of them being too closed, we can still see most of the stories online. What else do they offer behind the wall? I honestly don&#8217;t know. Followin the number of subscribers is the number of copies sold on average in the first 6 months of 2011, except when noted.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">A funny thing happened while collecting these numbers, mostly from articles on their own websites: they all boasted rises and superiority over the competition. It&#8217;s perfectly acceptable and understandable as a marketing strategy, but there&#8217;s nothing to boast about, overall sales are dropping. The last bit of information is the number of  unique visitors to their website.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">

<p style="text-align: left;">So, as you can see, there is a residual number of subscribers compared to the total number of newspaper buyers and unique visitors. Different markets require different strategies, and paywalls do not seem to be the solution for Portuguese media. Do you agree?

<p><strong>É <a href="http://narrativasvisuais.tumblr.com/" target="_blank" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/narrativasvisuais.tumblr.com/?referer=');">um novo blog</a>, em português, criado por dois colegas meus especialistas em infografias e narrativas interactivas. A Sara Freitas e o Renato Silva têm uma vasta experiência de produção no Laboratório de Infografia da Universidade do Porto, com trabalhos publicados em vários sites de informação nacionais, e como formadores na área.</strong></p>
<p>Segundo a Sara, &#8220;o blog pretende, por um lado, apresentar algum do trabalho que temos vindo a desenvolver, identificando processos de produção e principais dificuldades na criação das peças, assim como identificar alguns exemplos relativos ao que vai sendo produzido. Além disso funciona como um arquivo de informação a respeito da área da infografia e das narrativas visuais.&#8221;</p>
<p>As infografias digitais tem-se tornado cada vez mais comuns, com um aumento no investimento nesta área nas principais redacções no mundo. A Sara explica qual é a importância deste tipo de narrativas no jornalismo online.</p>
<blockquote><p>Em primeiro lugar a Web é um meio inevitavelmente visual. Logo qualquer tipo de informação tratada ou reforçada visualmente apoia a atenção do utilizador sobre a peça.</p>
<p>Em segundo lugar também é necessário ter em consideração a organização do arquivo digital que é imenso.</p>
<p>Desta forma a visualização de informação impõe-se como um meio de organização do arquivo que permite uma leitura personalizada aos utilizadores desses dados.</p>
<p>A infografia surge assim no jornalismo como uma forma de gerar interpretações de dados em bruto e também como forma de contextualização e rentabilização de elementos numa peça jornalística.</p></blockquote>
<p>As características e possibilidades multimédia e interactivas proporcionadas pelo ambiente online abrem novos horizontes para se comunicar informação complexa de uma forma mais apelativa e imediata. No entanto, em Portugal a aposta nestas linguagens &#8220;ainda não é grande&#8221;.</p>
<blockquote><p>Existem já algumas experiências que vão sendo desenvolvidas mas os processos de produção tradicionais e a falta de formação nestas áreas tem funcionado como uma barreira ao crescimento de conteúdos visuais em Portugal.</p></blockquote>
<p>Recomendo seguirem o blog do Renato e da Sara para aprenderem alguma coisa sobre o assunto, eu sei que já aprendi muito com eles.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Ricardo Rodrigues, a Portuguese parliament deputy, was being interviewed by two journalists from <a href="http://www.sabado.pt/" target="_blank" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.sabado.pt/?referer=');">Sábado magazine</a>, and after being questioned about its connection (or lack of) to a pedophilia case in Azores and a financial scam &#8211; his name was involved in rumours, but was never charged &#8211; he decided enough was enough and got up and left the room, taking the journalist&#8217;s audio recorders on its way out. Fortunately he forgot about the camera.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>The journalists filed a complaint for theft and menace to freedom of press, while the deputy asked for a court order, based on the argument that he was under &#8220;unbearable psychological violence&#8221; caused by the &#8220;harassment and false assumptions&#8221; on the part of the journalists. In a press conference he admitted that his actions were &#8220;rash&#8221;.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Rodrigues is a deputy for the majority party (Portuguese Socialist Party) and was an attorney, being also one of the party&#8217;s voices in Justice issues. This is just another in a string of incidents involving the majority party and the press. The Prime Minister has been accused of meddling in the management of a private station, a matter that is currently under investigation by a hearing commission.</strong></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>It&#8217;s in Portugal and it&#8217;s worth spreading: the second <a href="http://www.switchconf.com/" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.switchconf.com/?referer=');">Switch Conference</a> is just in a couple of days and there are still some tickets available . If you don&#8217;t know what it is, here&#8217;s what it&#8217;s all about:</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">SWITCH is a 2-day conference to be held  in the University of Coimbra, Portugal , on the 15th and 16th of May,  2010. We do want, however, to make SWITCH way more than a conference. We  want to make it an authentic 2-day discovering experience. Attendees  will get in touch with scientists, entrepreneurs, thinkers, do-er and  everyone in between to share their knowledge, their experience and their  ideias aiming to create awareness on scientific and technological  matters, preparing us to a better defined future and a helthier society.  We want and promote earth-shaking ideas, impossible breakthroughts and  incredible life stories.</p>
<p>The conference will take place on a  weekend to let those who are unable to leave work for the whole week to  attend the conference sharing their experience and vision.</p>
<p>SWITCH will have a main room where  presentations will fully run from day 1 to day 2, a second room where  the startup competition and deep discussions will take place and,  finally, outside areas when all sort of fun activities will take place  and where partners and sponsors stands will be located.</p>
<p>SWITCH main theme will be “Web &amp;  Development” but our bet is on diversity. Diversity of cultures, ideas,  discussions, persons and, of course, themes. You can find the full list  of topics for this year’s conference <a href="http://www.switchconf.com/switch/speakers/themes-subjects/" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.switchconf.com/switch/speakers/themes-subjects/?referer=');">here</a>.</p>
<p>In the 2nd Room will take place the  startup competition hosted by <a href="http://webreakstuff.com/" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/webreakstuff.com/?referer=');">Webreakstuff</a>. We want to act as a  plattaform for networking, but also as as a way for you to meet with  investors and to make your business project known by the crowd. The  startup competition will sort out the best startups around and promote  them with investors and media.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.switchconf.com/registration" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.switchconf.com/registration?referer=');">Grab your tickets while you can</a>.</strong></p>

Nem uma referência ao site, a investimento no digital, em multimédia. O i é um jornal e o site é (segundo ouvi dizer) o castigo para alguns jornalistas. Pelo que vi no programa da RTPN <a href="http://tv1.rtp.pt/programas-rtp/index.php?p_id=24974&amp;e_id=&amp;c_id=7&amp;dif=tv" target="_blank" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/tv1.rtp.pt/programas-rtp/index.php?p_id=24974_amp_e_id=_amp_c_id=7_amp_dif=tv&amp;referer=');">&#8220;Hora de Fecho&#8221;,</a> o Grupo Lena vai aplicar algumas das <a href="http://olago.wordpress.com/2009/05/11/i-agora-uma-revisao-ao-que-foi-dito-e-ficou-por-dizer/" target="_blank" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/olago.wordpress.com/2009/05/11/i-agora-uma-revisao-ao-que-foi-dito-e-ficou-por-dizer/?referer=');">resoluções que eu defendi assim que vi a primeira edição do i</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Eu pessoalmente não gosto da atitude editorial do i, que trazia por vezes mais curiosidades do que notícias (pelo menos era o que via no Facebook), mas respeito qualquer edição que tenha gente capaz e que consiga criar uma marca respeitada pelos seus pares internacionais. Todos os prémios que o i recebeu são merecidos, e não gosto de ver tanto potencial desperdiçado, numa redacção cheia de jovens jornalistas que vestiram a camisola de um projecto que sempre pareceu a muitos estar condenado desde o início.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">E, repito, nem uma palavra sobre o investimento no online. Ter uma capa bonita nas bancas não chega, mas infelizmente é essa a maior preocupação da imprensa nacional.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Mais posts sobre o i em breve.</p>

<p align="justify"><strong>The card shown above belongs <a href="http://www.jornalices.com/?p=610" target="_blank" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.jornalices.com/?p=610&amp;referer=');">to a friend of mine, and it is the solid evidence that he is a journalist</a>. But, does he need it? The card is given <a href="http://www.ccpj.pt/" target="_blank" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.ccpj.pt/?referer=');">by a commitee</a>, that works more like a club than like a professional association: there are standards to comply and we need sponsors to have one of these, to be working as a journalist and getting paid for the last year, and if we stop working we have to ask for it again. </strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>Reality check: many journalists are working on their own and freelancing, or temporarily at news companies because the &#8220;industry&#8221; is going down the drain. I have a degree in journalism, what if i start my own news website? Will i be recognized by the commitee as a journalist? And why would i need that?</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>The question is: is this system any good? Yes,no,why?</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>The owner of this card pointed <a href="http://jornalistas.com/" target="_blank" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/jornalistas.com/?referer=');">to this new website</a> that wishes to tackle this issue.<br />

<p align="justify"><strong>O cartão acima <a href="http://www.jornalices.com/?p=610" target="_blank" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.jornalices.com/?p=610&amp;referer=');">é de um amigo meu, e é a prova concreta de que ele é jornalista</a>. Mas, será que ele precisa? A carteira é atribuída <a href="http://www.ccpj.pt/" target="_blank" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.ccpj.pt/?referer=');">por uma comissão</a>, que funciona mais como um clube do que como uma associação profissional: há requisitos a cumprir, e precisamos de patrocinadores (padrinhos&#8230;), estar a trabalhar e ser pago há um ano, e se interrompermos a actividade, repetir a candidatura.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>A realidade: muitos jornalistas estão a trabalhar por conta própria e como freelancers, ou temporariamente em empresas porque a &#8220;indústria&#8221; está ir pela pia abaixo.Tenho um curso de jornalismo, e se começar um meu próprio site de informação? Serei reconhecido pela comissão como jornalista? E porque preciso de o ser?</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>A questão é: será este sistema útil? Sim, não, porquê?<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong>O dono deste cartão <a href="http://jornalistas.com/" target="_blank" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/jornalistas.com/?referer=');">apontou para este site</a> que pretende discutir este assunto.<br />
