Frank Sandoval: A survival story

Posted on January 30, 2007 by Melissa Worden

“Frank Sandoval: A survival story,” published by The Mercury News last month, is a good online multimedia “read.”

In addition to the quality storytelling aspects of this package — the intro and video/still photo integrations are nicely done — I’m so impressed with the interactive flash elements in this presentation. They’re sharp and compliment the story well.

The little touches gives the otherwise static graphic and transitions between videos a bit of zip that creates an interesting visual element without overpowering the content.

Update: I just came across this podcast interview with Richard Koci-Hernandez over at MultimediaShooter — thanks for letting me know about your site from a previous post, Richard. He’s the designer/producer of the Frank Sandoval package outlined above. Aha … this small world is starting to come together for me now … :)
