What does it mean when you photogs make references to NPPA style shooting? Hell, what is NPPA style shooting? I'm aware of the organization but always thought of it as a "proper ethics" in journalism group more than a shooting standard. Can anyone clarify the term NPPA style?

There's been about a thousand discussions on this topic over the last few months in the General Discussion and NPPA areas. I suggest going back a little and checking them out.

NPPA style for the most part is staging and wasting alot of time setting up the tripod during spot news.

I belong to the NPPA because my station pays for us to belong. But I think the NPPA has alot of problems to deal with besides "style." I think alot of them need to check their attitudes and favoritisms.

generally speaking....lots of tight shots, lots of quick edits...

it's just a style, not a way of life. i find that nppa style works for some stories, not for others. just don't submit the one's that it doesn't work for any kind of award.

There is no NPPA style. If you read or listen to what most people say about NPPA style you will notice them stress story telling shots. Video that tells a story and get your sequences.

I am not saying this to fight with anyone. I am just saying let your video tell a story.
