In today's community of Iraq and Afghanistan war veterans, one in five suffer from post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or major depression. Brian Scott Ostrom is one of them. After serving four years as a reconnaissance marine and deploying twice to Iraq, Scott, now 27, returned home to the U.S. with a severe case of PTSD. "The most important part of my life already happened. The most devastating. The chance to come home in a box. Nothing is ever going to compare to what I've done, so I'm struggling to be at peace with that," Scott said. He attributes his PTSD to his second deployment to Iraq, where he served seven months in Fallujah with the 2nd Reconnaissance Battalion. "It was the most brutal time of my life," he said. "I didn't realize it because I was living it. It was a part of me." Since his discharge, Scott has struggled with daily life, from finding and keeping employment to maintaining healthy relationships. But most of all, he's struggled to overcome his brutal and haunting memories of Iraq. Nearly five years later, Scott remains conflicted by the war. Though he is proud of his service and cares greatly for his fellow Marines, he still carries guilt for things he did and didn't do fighting a war he no longer believes in.

Photojournalism - Photography, Video and Visual Journalism Archives

Spill The Beans! – im Englischen salopp für: „Nun erzähl schon!“ – ist eine autorengeführte Internetplattform für die Präsentation multimedialer und interaktiver Reportagen. Spill The Beans! steht für engagierten Journalismus präsentiert durch neue multimediale Erzählformen. Fotografie, Film, Grafik und Ton werden miteinander verbunden und dadurch atmosphärisch und inhaltlich dichter. „Interactive Storytelling“, wie diese Erzählform auch genannt wird, öffnet Menschen, die sich abseits der abgetretenen journalistischen Pfade informieren wollen, einen neuen medialen Zugang.

progressive site dedicated to visual politics and the analysis of news images

Press is dead. Photojournalism is dying. TV is boring. No future? Well, not yet, maybe… Let’s think again and try a few solutions to improve our ways to inform people and communicate...

Peu de multimédia ici au sens propre, mais une collection éblouissante de reportages qui titilleras les amateurs de la belle photo. La navigation n’est pas évidente : il faut attendre que les photos soient chargés avant que le système de glissière fonctionne, mais cela n’est pas le principal. Un blog complète ce panorama mis à jour régulièrement.

Un nouveau récit par jour - Les Canadiens face à la crise (partenariat onf)

Nous vous parlions il y a deux semaines de l’initiatives de deux jeunes journalistes qui réalisent un webdocumentaire sur les “monsieur tout le monde parisiens” (interview à venir bientôt sur le site). C’est au tour du New-York Times de publier un joli webdocumentaire (commencée il y a tout de même deux ans) décrivant les “gens ordinaires qui racontent des histoires extraordinaires” : la mère adolescente, la paparazzi, le vétéran d’Irak, le juré qui dit 200 fois par jour “bonjour”… Le tout est composé de 54 petits diaporamas sonores en noir et blanc, très bien travaillés que vous pouvez regarder dans l’ordre que vous voulez (interactivité oblige…).
