Journal

In the spirit of solidarity, the VSCO team invite you to share your unique worldview, process, and vision through original long-form content on your Journal.

Extending this new layer of creative communication will further empower and fuel a global arts movement. In the future, they will be  adding Vimeo, YouTube, and SoundCloud compatibility.

To commemorate this new feature, VSCO are excited to announce collaborations with famed music publication The FADER and street photographer Tommy Ton. Illustrating the vast ways in which Journal can be used for creative expression, The FADER will be sharing retrospective narratives from their 15 year archive, and Tommy Ton will give an exclusive behind the scenes look at his process and philosophy on a shoot.
