After the Riots
Guardian photographer Dan Chung and reporter Angelique Chrisafis have created a duo of well-produced multimedia pieces in the run-up to the French presidential elections. After the Riots focuses on life for residents in France’s run-down housing estates, whilst opposite viewpoints are presented in Le Pen’s Heartland.
Produced with the ubiquitous SoundSlides, the slideshows have a different feel to most due to their often fastpaced transitions that give a somewhat cinematic style. A nice use of the multimedia format that’s well worth watching.
