‘As Video Integration Manager, Long will play a vital role in this process by helping the AP transform its international video production processes to ensure our journalists around the world are equipped for the digital age and the AP leads the market in creating and delivering video content for all platforms,’ said AP Director of Emerging Products-International Sue Brooks, who made the announcement today.
