After reading/interacting with “Bulger on Trial” (David Boeri, WBUR) and “Soon There Will Be No Survivors” (Jason Florio, Tablet), choose one of the two projects and write a brief analysis reflecting on how the multimedia content shaped your experience of the story. Which elements enhanced your reading experience? And in what way? Which, if any, felt distracting or extraneous? What do you notice about how these elements were incorporated into the flow of the text? What decisions went into the design of the interface and to what effect?

Looking forward to your multimedia profile, what might you take away from these projects as you consider what kind of content to collect and how to embed it in your story?
