3D coverage = Photography + Web innovation

Thought this might capture your interest and the interest of your readers. I just wrapped up a 3D coverage project for the NY Photo Festival.

Follow the link to the NY Photo Festival’s homepage, scroll down the page and click on the box that says “Coverage NYPH 2010 in 3D” http://www.nyphotofestival.com

Over the last few years, I’ve developed an innovative method of covering events. I create a 3D online experience of the event, rendered through the interplay of photos and video interviews with attendees and special guests, all set in an evocative, 3D representation of the event’s environment.

Quickly after an event begins, a virtual version is launched, which those interested can then visit and explore, both contemporaneous with those attending the event live, or at any point thereafter. This new type of journalistic model vastly expands the number of people who can experience an event. The event will live on online, reaching visitors and influencing their decisions long after the festival has closed.

This new type of coverage doesn’t reside at just one Website—it’s meant for dissemination throughout the Web. Like YouTube videos, the coverage is embeddable on any Website or blog.

Blog it! Past the embed code into your site to share the content. Find and copy the code on my website at http://www.martinlenclos.com/site/nyph10.html

Feel free to ask me for images.

Best,
Martin Lenclos

I am delighted to find this website. I am an academic based in London who writes on photography and displacement. I am very interested in photogrpahic self-representation and also photography from the ‘global south,’ as also in the role of the image as a platform for representation.

I’ll check in from time to time to see what’s new here. Thanks for your efforts!

ROb,

This seems like a terrific initiative. I offer a bit of free advertising here:

Thanks Sagar. Great to get comments from you. In regards to photographic tips – I am not a professional photographer so would need to either get tips from one, or link to related sites. I will give this some thought (equally for video) and see what I can come up with. On campaigning, I could write something on this and communications. It will need to be linked to visual media as this is the focus of the project, rather than campaigning in general. I will also look for some useful links.
Best
Rob

Dear Robert,
I am the regulare visitor of your website. I think if you will put some basic idea and tips how to handle the camera and about campaigning than it would be more useful. Wonderful job!!! Keep it Up…

With regards,
Sagar.

Dear Rob,
We are trying to start a civic engagement project in kolkata with Undergraduate student. It would be great if you can provide more details on your organization work and how the students might get involved in it.
Thanks
