Tuesday, January 27, 2009 from 6:00 PM - 9:30 PM (ET)
NYC UPA presents:
a presentation by Andrew DeVigal, multimedia editor for The New York Times.
How do we create compelling online news experiences? First, we traverse the multimedia landscape to gather the pieces of our narrative: text, visuals and data. Next, we design that story as one seamless experience in a simple interface. Oh, and we mustn’t forget to make it flexible enough to allow last-minute changes and updates. In this presentation, we’ll examine case studies from The New York Times and explore some outside-the-box thinking.
Andrew DeVigal is multimedia editor for The New York Times. He was recently profiled as a leading “renegade cybergeek” by New York magazine.
