Convention Plus

ABOUT CONVENTION PLUS

AP colleague Troy Thibodeaux and I conceived and developed this live updating interactive for the 2008 national conventions. I coordinated coverage for the interactive from the Democratic National Convention in Denver.

The interactive featured:

    24/7 live streaming video
    Daily HD video essays by AP video journalists
    archived speeches
    Live “chatter” updates from AP journalists across all formats

TOOLS

I built the interactive in Flash with video handled by Akamai streaming servers and a live XML-based production database.
