This week, the Knight Digital Media Center at UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism presents a week of intensive workshop training for journalists in multimedia.

Mark Glaser of MediaShift (a blog the Knight Foundation supports), is live-blogging some of the workshops.

From MediaShift posts, find out about the Christmas Tree approach to incorporating multimedia, why UC Berkeley journalism school new media director Paul Grabowicz advises "print might be going away but not text," how video should be part, and not all, of a specific piece, why RAW format isn't necessary for the web, and try building this Flash template that "will help you do the interactivity for about 90% of Flash designs."

The Center offers more tutorials here.

Last Wednesday, the Knight News Challenge winners were announced at the Editor & Publisher/Mediaweek Interactive conference in Las Vegas.

Knight Foundation president and CEO Alberto Ibargüen chatted with one of the winners, Sir Tim Berners-Lee, after the announcement; inventor of the World Wide Web, Berners-Lee is working with Martin Moore on a transparent journalism project.

The full details on all sixteen grants are here.

Video from all the winners explaining their projects, as Bev Clark does for her Freedom Fone project below, will be posted on this blog this week.

This year's winners will also join last year's News Challenge winners blogging for IdeaLab.
