What Your Boss Wants from You…

Bryan Barr  of WBFF Fox 45 has been a Chief Photojournalist longer than he hasn't.  In that time stuck in middle management, he has learned one classic fact in this business: honest hard work always trumps talent.  Its true.  In a perfect world, its best to have both.  Given the requirement of choice, Bryan would hire someone who is has a positive attitude and is not afraid to get a little dirty.  You will see some great stories highlighting both his work and that of the photojournalist staff at WBFF.  You will leave his presentation with some helpful hints on how to get ahead in the modern television newsroom.  


 

Bryan started his photojournalist journey in 1996 at the CBS affiliate in Harrisburg, PA. After many years and many teachable moments (mistakes), he moved on to the best little TV station in the country...WBFF FOX 45. There, Bryan learned from the some of the best visual journalists in the land what it takes to tell great TV stories.  After a brief "vacation" at another great TV station...WHTM, Bryan is back at WBFF in Baltimore.  He is currently the Chief Photojournalist of a staff of 12.  Bryan lives in Towson, Maryland with his wife and 2 kids.
