What they say about duckrabbit: 'One of the hazards of publishing a well-known photojournalism blog - getting multimedia like yours, where the photos are both powerful and moving, and I end up in tears at my desk.'
Alan Taylor, Boston Big Picture)
'David White's multimedia work with duckrabbit is very exciting.'
Kate Edwards (Guardian Magazine Picture Editor)
'I am a fan of duckrabbit. I am not a fan because I agree with everything Ben has to say, but because he says it without frills and then will spend the time necessary to engage the consequent discussions. Such commitment is a priceless commodity.'
Prison Photography
'I met one of them at an academic conference in the summer. He was the sanest person there, but sure enough by damn gadnabbit ruffled more than a few fluffed up peacock feathers.'
The Photography Pages
'If you haven't seen the duckrabbit blog on multimedia you should.'
Stephen Alvarez
'duckrabbit has done another jaw-dropping job with Condition Critical, a highly commendable and important project for Medecins Sans Frontiers.'

“In times when (some) photographers hold celebrity status, it is useful to be reminded that a good photograph does not solely depend on the photographer’s ability to choose the right subject, location and light, but also on the chemistry and the collaboration, between photographer and subject…Despite my deep sympathy for socially inclined photographers, when the [...]

This is a really well produced documentary by Jesse Morgan and a great example of how you can mix up stills and moving images.

Paul Lowe, who heads up the course, is a great supporter and advocate of digital storytelling. The fact that he wants to prepare students for life after print is rare amongst university educators (nudge, nudge Newport).

I have to say, I think Magnum in Motion are really on top of their game at the moment. For something like the third time in as many weeks they’ve produced a beautiful little multimedia piece, this time about 2nd tour soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan. Shot by Peter van Agtmael – do check it [...]

Multimedia producers the Bombay Flying Club have just published their latest piece, shot in Ethiopia.
At 11 minutes, Streetlight is a little on the long side for most armchair viewers, and the Flying Club’s trademark use of rich black and white photographs, while stunning, perhaps steals something from the overall piece. Their use of audio is [...]

Sent to the duck by Ian Forsyth, this multimedia piece looks at the repatriation of soldiers killed on operations whilst in Afghanistan and Iraq, and the thoughts of the residents of Wootton Bassett..a town through which many bodies of these men pass. His piece is an MOD produced handout, maybe the first of its kind [...]

Don McCullin is not only a great photographer but he’s also a great talker. I caught him this morning on the BBC’s TODAY programme. It was a powerful listen. Important too to hear a photographer talk about the cost to his mental health of the work he does. The BBC are hosting an audio slideshow:

This powerful audio slideshow is brought impressively to life by Olince Calixte, a blind street musician from Port au Prince.
It’s also a journey from pain, trauma and shock through to the first signs of recovery. For me it tells a much more balanced story of the aftermath than many sets of photos out there. [...]

It’s not often the BBC’s small audio slideshow team really nail it on the head, but they’ve put together something special today.
Portraits of the Fallen tells the story of a Vietnam veteran who gets up at 4am every morning to draw pictures of service men and women killed in Iraq.
As well as excellent use of [...]

Yesterday in London I decided to get wonderfully lost. I had some hours to kill and so I started walking along the river not really caring where I ended up.
Where I ended up was the small but popular gallery beneath the OXO Tower, only 10 minutes from where I started. The building used to be [...]

‘Daily exposure to NPR provided an epiphany on the power of multi-layered audio storytelling and its paramount importance in news multimedia. That’s when I realized it should be the strongest element and that everything else should follow (a departure from our multimedia efforts up until then) and that news multimedia could and should be truly [...]
