Mediastorm

This website is one of the best journalistic media websites I have ever seen. He and his team have created short documentaries that are more journalistic and cross-platform of story telling, pictures and audio. Brian Storm (creator of mediastorm) is sponsored by the Washington Post. He brings multimedia and journalism to a new level. One of his stories, "The Ninth Floor" is an epic story telling peice of people who live on the ninth floor of an abandon building. They live there to keep their addiction alive. For three years these addicts were followed. Some went to jail, others sunk deeper into their addiction. They had no valuables because everything was sold off. This story that is told has some extremely beautiful (and horrifying) photojournalism peices I have ever seen. There is also audio and texts that excentuate the story amazingly. In some of the other stories that have been created there is some video. However, I enjoy the purely photographic ones. A lot of these peices probably could not be shown on regular newspaper websites because there are often controversial shots including nudity, drugs and alcohol.

These media cross platforms create some of the most impactful and storytelling peices of journalism I have ever seen.
