7 03 2011NAMI History Multimedia Project
Our project’s goal is to recover NAMI Northern Virginia history and present it interactively. We will conduct interviews with past board members, do research about the institution, and gather information about its history. We will be using different online platforms to organize and present the information.
Our project will be constructed around an interactive timeline. We’ll be using dipity to create it. We’re planning to use YouTube to post our videos, but they also will be linked to the timeline. We will use batchgeo to create a Google map, and point the locations and programs offered by NAMI Northern Va. The map will be linked to the timeline. Slideshows, scanned documents, and other images will also be linked. We will use social media to disseminate the information we produced, and to reach out to NAMI NOVA already established audience on Facebook.
My role within the project is to create the timeline. I will gather all the information about the organization’s history and bring it all together to be put in a horizontal timeline dating from NAMI NOVA’s creation to its current state. I will do most of the research but other members of the group will also do some research and send it to me to put into the timeline. I will also be assisting with the writing component and social media.
