FOTONITE BIG Wednesday Show Premieres
February 16, 2005 - San Clemente, CA - There's a buzz in the air about a new photo industry gathering that debuts tonight in Southern California with Pulitzer Prize-winning Dallas Morning News photojournalist DAVID LEESON as the featured speaker. Fellow photographers, photo-industry professionals and picture aficionados will gather at FOTONITE's first BIG Wednesday event for what promises to be a killer slide show presentation of Leeson's war coverage. The second speaker, up-and-coming ZUMA photojournalist MARK ALLEN JOHNSON, will show his latest reportage from the volatile oil fields of Nigeria. FOTONITE is run by a team of volunteers, including founders DAVIS BARBER, photographer and Cal State Fullerton professor of photojournalism, COLIN FINLAY, award-winning photojournalist and Pulitzer Prize-winning videographer, JACKIE LOVATO, freelance photographer and assistant, and SCOTT MC KIERNAN, photojournalist and founder of ZUMA Press and zReportage.com, as well as publisher of DOUBLEtruck Magazine. At each FOTONITE BIG Wednesday gathering, two speakers take the platform: an up-and-comer and one main featured speaker who is an established veteran. Speakers and subjects vary from reportage and hard-core war photography to features with global appeal and long-term documentary projects of social concern. If you're in the area, be sure to stop in on the first BIG Wednesday event!
