‘Best of the Post 2009′ a multimedia treasure trove
I recently stumbled across The Washington Post’s “Best of the Post 2009″ feature and thoroughly enjoyed looking through the 21 interactives, 35 videos, 17 photos, and 27 photo galleries that they highlighted. Obviously the Post staff was quite busy this past year, and they certainly have a lot to be proud of from the wealth of content showcased in their annual round-up.
Washington Post launches interactive video and comments feature
The Washington Post recently launched an interactive video feature titled, “Scene In.” Produced with a Canon 5D Mark II by talented videographer Alexandra Garcia, this weekly fashion video package features a variety of innovative elements, including an interactive video control and an animated comments section.
Interactive panoramas elevate storytelling efforts
The Washington Post launched an investigative multimedia package on Sunday about DeOnté Rawlings, a 14-year-old who was killed 19 months ago by off-duty police officers. Although the police officers were cleared of any wrong-doing, this in-depth report analyzes the case using a timeline, video, text article and interactive scene re-creation module. This interactive section impressed me most, with multiple panoramas synced to user interaction to unfold the events over time.
Best of the Post 2008 offers endless inspiration for 2009
Happy 2009 everyone. I am slowly catching up from two weeks out of the country and another week without phones or internet, so bear with me. While I sift through my RSS feed and delicious links, make sure to spend some time with Washington Posts’ “Best of the Post 2008.” With 19 interactives featured, it’s a great excuse to delay doing work on a Monday morning. There always seems to be a few I missed during the past year, as well as the oldies but goodies.
