Storyboard - Wired Blogs
Sounds like a promising peek behind the curtain at Wired. I'll watch this for a while and see whether I can use it in my journalism classes.
What Is This?
An almost-real-time, behind-the-scenes look at the assigning, writing, editing, and designing of a Wired feature. You can see more about the design process on Wired creative director Scott Dadich's SPD blog, The Process. This is a one-time experiment, tied solely to the Charlie Kaufman profile scheduled to run in our November 08 issue.
What Are The Rules?We will post internal e-mails, audio, video, drafts, memos, and layouts. We reserve the right to edit our posts, out of sympathy for the reader or to protect our relationships with our sources. We will not post emails with sources or reproduce communications that take place outside of Wired.
Why Are We Doing This?
See our The Birth of Storyboard video and An Experiment post.
