Medina Gazette multimedia

I have to say, I am impressed by the multimedia the photographers at the Medina Gazette are undertaking.

Medina is the county just west of Summit, which is where Akron is. It’s mostly rural. The paper is about 15,000ish circulation, if I recall correctly. I know a few people who’ve worked their part-time or as interns, but I’ve never really looked at it or its Web offerings. Today, I saw one of the projects linked at MultimediaShooter. Although I liked the presentation of that story, I was also impressed with the way they’ve collected their multimedia. It’s very streamlined and user friendly.

I just checked it out. It says Rami is their photo intern and web designer. He’s a KSU student. (Not sure if he’s graduated yet?) Seeing his name makes sense. He’s definitely talented. He was the CyBurr webmaster who preceded me my freshman year. But, as you’ll notice, he rocks (and knows Flash and has photo skills I only dream of). And I well, have a long way to go.

    Thanks for the kind words about our work at the Gazette. The majority of what we have produced has been with the program, Sounslides, (see: http://www.soundslides.com) created by Joe Wiess. Rami has indeed authored the website and is primarily responsible for its maintenance. Look for a completely new and fresh redesign of both The Gazette Photojournal, and the front-end, Medina Gazette sites. We’re counting down the hours to launch time.

    Best,
