Journalist launches interactive photo service


A freelance journalist is hoping news outlets will be interested in his new service to create visual interactives, Journalism.co.uk reported Friday.

Benji Lanyado, the creator of the Reddit Edit, created a template he can “build on top of” to make custom visual interactive articles.

“The next level is to make images interactive,” he said, giving the Boston Globe’s “big picture” as an example.

The interactive articles can be built from scratch in one to four days and dropped natively into a news outlet’s site or embedded like a YouTube video. Video, audio and everything else can be customised, and they work on both mobile devices and tablets too, benjilabs.com explained.
