WAN-IFRA and the Society for News Design (SND) will join together to present a conference Jan. 23, 2012 in New Delhi, India to show the participants the “best practices” in creativity, originality and the efficiency in producing news for all platforms.
A good design gives added value to the editorial content. Today, newspaper designers, infographics artists and editors face the challenge of creative design to adapt to the four main news platforms — print, web, mobile and tablet.
