The Virginia Reel was established in 2009 by Dawn Dickson Van Ness as part of her studies in Virginia Commonwealth University’s Mass Communication’s graduate program; it was both a place to put her multimedia work and a way to enrich her studies. The Virginia Reel is now one of the properties of her company, Shy Light Media, a company she established November 2011 that primarily deals with PR and marketing, serving small businesses and the self-employed at affordable rates.
CURRENT CONTENT
The Virginia Reel, an online, multimedia magazine for those that live and love in southern Virginia, will feature news articles on businesses, developments, and resources in a twelve county area. Feature articles will be on different recreational aspects of the area that make living in the area pleasurable and some of the people enjoying them.
As a partly creative venture, Dawn Van Ness will write a weekly column titled Postcards from SoVA! that addresses living in the area from a first person perspective.
