Michael Cavna wins another journalism award (or two)

This time it's the Society for Features Journalism 26th Annual Excellence in Features Award.

Division 3

VIDEO STORYTELLING


Third: Michael Cavna and Tom Racine, Washington Post, "March: Congressman John Lewis's Civil-Rights Story"
Judge's comments: The producers make an interesting choice in transforming their video into an animated form to talk about a graphic novel. It might have been neat to show Rep. Lewis transforming from standard video to animation, though, then again, it might have been hokey.

BLOG PORTFOLIO

Division 3

First: Michael Cavna, Washington Post, "Comic Riffs"
Judge's comments: The post defending the worth of graphic novels was epic, with a great multimedia presentation. After that, no one can ever say graphic novels aren't worthy of respect. The post on Mort Walker was engrossing. Top-notch work.
