BITTER PILLS – A FOUR-PART MULTIMEDIA PROJECT

This was an amazing project to work on – to even think doctors were over-prescribing prescription drugs that led to death. I assigned Los Angeles Times photographer and videographer Liz O. Baylen to the project. We were given reporters’ outlines of the story and then figured out the best way to illustrate the stories. This was a four-part print series, and a Web presentation involving four videos, still images, and a triptych with audio. I’m on organizer and list maker. Trying to get a handle on what you need? I’m here for you. Check out the original website at the Los Angeles Times. Just click on the image below, then you can view the vidoes and triptych all of which are excellent.
