Aflevering #172 Eng The Power Of Visual Storytelling: Lucy Conticello On Photography, Ethics And World Press Photo Contest

Welcome to a new episode of De Donkere Kamer podcast! This episode features none other than Lucy Conticello, the director of photography at M, Le Monde's weekend magazine. Lucy has an impressive international career: she started as an assistant at the Italian Libéral, studied photography in Maine as well as archaeology and art history in Rome. In the podcast, she takes you through her wanderings from Italy to the US and France, but most of all through her passion for photography - not behind the camera, but as an editor. Together, Kaat and Lucy dive into the world of photojournalism, discuss the role and ethics of the photo editor, and talk about the great responsibility and challenges within the industry, such as the impact of AI, copyright, and the need for in-depth storytelling in an image-saturated world. Lucy talks candidly about the dynamics of working at Le Monde, her experiences as jury chair at the World Press Photo Awards, and her insights on the future of photography and the importance of young talents. Be inspired by Lucy's vision of visual storytelling, the power of collaboration, and the human side of photography. Whether you are a photographer, editor, journalist or just an enthusiast, this episode is packed with personal stories, professional tips and a look behind the scenes of the international photography world. website van De Donkere Kamer: www.donkerekamer.com instagram De Donkere Kamer: @dedonkerekamer_be masterclasses: donkerekamer.com/masterclasses website Le Monde: https://www.lemonde.fr/m-le-mag/ website World Press Photo: https://www.worldpressphoto.org/ instagram Lucy: @lucyconticello
