About
Robert Browman is an Emmy Award-winning, freelance multimedia journalist based in St. Petersburg, Florida. He is currently working on stories for online, print and radio publication.
Since 2005, Browman has been a Senior Producer at the New York-based multimedia production company MediaStorm, where he worked as the original team member with founder Brian Storm to build all aspects of the highly-acclaimed and award-winning online publication and production company from the ground up.
He spent the two years prior to MediaStorm at the picture agency Corbis in New York City, where he held the roles of Senior Editor for News, News Assignment Representative and Multimedia Producer. During his time at Corbis he, among other things, worked to build a viable business model for the multimedia industry and secured some of the first multimedia project assignments in the business for world-class multimedia journalists. He also coached photographers who were embracing audio and video tools in an effort to incorporate multimedia elements into their stories.
Before moving to New York, Browman spent three-and-a-half years in Seattle working at MSNBC.com as a Multimedia Producer, first working on the fast-paced, 24-hour daily news desk, and then working with the special projects team on long-form multimedia projects. He was also responsible for coding and maintaining workflow tools for MSNBC’s Media Team.
Browman began his career at the Albuquerque Journal, where he worked for nearly three years, first as a photographer and then an Online Producer.
During the course of his career as a multimedia journalist, he has won an Emmy Award, and has been nominated for another, and his work has been awarded three times by the Webby Awards, which the New York Times hails as the “Oscars of the Internet”.
His work has been awarded five times by the prestigious International Academy of Visual Arts W3 Awards, and has received eight awards from the Pictures of the Year International competition, eight awards from the NPPA’s Best of Photojournalism competition, and two from the Horizon Interactive Awards.
Browman has worked in an educational capacity as an Executive Producer for the multimedia team at the Eddie Adams Workshop and as a speaker at the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University.
He also manages and maintains his family’s web stores Purse Hanger Store.
Browman received a degree in journalism in 1996 from the University of Florida.

Hi all,
I have been working with my buddy Brian Storm on a new multimedia publication called Mediastorm. Today we made it live.
The launch includes work from a diverse set of photographers, audio reporters, filmmakers and musicians and contains not only journalistic stories, but also lighter projects with, hopefully, appeal for a broad audience.
We are pushing envelope a bit with regard to internet technology, so you will need the latest Flash plugin (Player 8) to see the site, which you will be prompted to download on your first visit, if you don’t already have it. A high-speed internet connection and a computer with a pretty fast processor is also required as our videos are high quality.
Check it out at http://www.mediastorm.org
And please note, we pay licensing fees for the projects we publish and we are always seeking submissions for future projects, which will be published on an ongoing basis. If you have great work, or an idea, you would like to submit for consideration, please visit the submissions guidelines page:
http://mediastorm.org/submissions
Thanks,
Rob
