The 2018 drone journalism forecast
"One year ago, I hoped to be able to say to you now that drone journalism took off in 2017. This year, Poynter - along with the National Press Photographers Association, The Drone Journalism Lab at the University of Nebraska and DJI - taught nearly 400 journalists how to legally and safely fly. But the never-ending flow of local and state restrictions and the slow response of the FAA to airspace waiver requests keep drones from being the daily tool they can be. There is reason to believe 2018 will give those of us who are licensed drone pilots more freedom to fly."

Authentic content is in: 2018 photography trends fuse reality and creativity
Photography has long ditched the trend of business-suit perfection
for images of people that could have come straight from our social media feeds
, but 2018 could mix the trend toward authenticity with an opposite but equally dominant trend: Creativity. As 2017 comes to a close, stock photography companies tally data from the previous year to predict what imaging styles are going to dominate in the next year. The reports help not just stock photographers but photographers, videographers and other creatives in a number of different disciplines pinpoint what will help their work make an impact on viewers.

Artist Nan Goldin Joined Instagram
Christmas came early for fans of contemporary photography: earlier this month, Nan Goldin
joined Instagram. Though her account,
@nangoldinstudio
, got off to a slow start on December 13, when she posted a photo from 1992
(maybe she forget to tag it #WBW), it has since picked up steam, with
cleverly
cropped
details
of European paintings and newer images in her signature, candid style, from a pastoral scene of a couple embracing
to a photo of the back of her own head

Kodak announces its own cryptocurrency and watches stock price skyrocket
There's a growing list of companies that have added language about blockchain or cryptocurrency into their names and mission statements, and it makes sense. Companies that do so see their stocks rise in value afterward. The latest company to jump on this trend is, unexpectedly, Kodak, which just launched its own KodakCoin
, a cryptocurrency for photographers. As soon as the news was announced, Kodak's stock (KODK) jumped up
, and as of this writing, its stock price is $5.02, a 60 percent gain.

Pantone Colour of the Year 2018 has been announced
Pantone has announced its Colour of the Year 2018 is Ultra Violet, or Pantone 18-3838 TCX. Unveiled in The New York Times, the announcement is based on in-depth research, trend forecasting and analysis of current culture.
"The colour we select to be our Pantone Colour of the Year is one which we think best communicates what is taking place in our global culture at a moment in time," says vice president of Pantone Laurie Pressman in an interview with Pixartprinting. "A colour we see crossing all areas of design that serves as an expression of a mood and an attitude on the part of the consumers." The colour, Laurie says, is "reflective of the collective mindset... the popularity of a colour is symbolic of the age we are living in."
