Mediastorm keeps bringing us innovative and striking multimedia presentations from photographers around the globe. I check in every so often to see who and what is popping up next in this small, yet vast community of photojournalists. I was completely blown away by this presentation. Not only was I excited to see a piece set to the beats of RJD2's "1976" but it's incredibly well executed and shows just how versatile photography can be. Left Channel and Lisa Fjeld created an amazing display of flash forward journalism. Being a photojournalist and completely in love with the editorial realm, it's really exciting seeing the possibilities that tomorrow brings, because well, our grey ladies are struggling these days and I'm never quite sure what's 'round the bend.
Mediastorm says it best:
1976 journeys through the ghettos, farmlands and lifestyles of Cuba as scenes build and unfold blurring the distinction between the propaganda and the everyday reality of struggling to survive.
The concept of the video was to capture the flair of the Latin influence in the song "1976" by RJD2.
