[talk-ph] Video of edits in Haiti by ITO World

2010-02-15 Thread Eugene Alvin Villar
In a similar, but different, style to their famed 2008: A Year of Edits
video, ITO World created an animation of the edits in Haiti and
Port-au-Prince in the wake of the deadly earthquake. Check it out on Vimeo:
http://vimeo.com/9182869 and see Christopher Osborne's article on The
Guardian: http://www.guardian.co.uk/open-platform/blog/mapping-a-crisis

I can't wait for their 2009 video. :-)
