Making KBIA and KOMU websites "Flash-y"
More and more of today’s media use Flash to present photo slideshows, explain complex technical issues through infographics, and to generally become more interactive.
I would like to see more of Flash-based slideshows and graphics on KBIA and KOMU websites. There are limitations to each of these media, and Flash could cover up for some of those. Take radio. People today seem more visual than in the past. I am not satisfied with only hearing things—I want images that would complement my understanding of a story. After listening to a story I like, I want to be able to go to the radio’s website and SEE whether mental images I created while listening are anything like the reality.
Web allows the audio and visual forms of storytelling to converge, and Flash can turn that convergence into a pleasant experience for the user.
Same with TV: television stories tend to run very quickly, and if one grabs my attention and I want to know more, I don’t want extra video. I want photos—details, unusual angles—that would leave me with a more lasting impression of the story. Again, Flash could be a convenient way to get that impression.
