Here are some other multimedia stories concerning Homelessness:
This here is a pretty cool video that goes out into the community to get real voices of homeless people. As she says it, she is giving the homeless people in America a voice.
I enjoyed this next video because it does a great job of evoking emotion through music, photos and facts. It persuades audiences to feel sympathy for people that are less fortunate then they are.
Here is a link to another story done on CBS News. com. I thought this was very cool because it is talking to a man that is actually making an effort to bring the issue of homelessness to the main stream. His blog is called invisiblepeople.tv and it also has a lot of great information and use of multimedia concerning my topic of interest.
The blog uses video to give people insight on how individuals across the country are dealing with homelessness. By talking to "real people", it gives the site more credibility and it gives it a more personal feel.
This use of multimedia makes the site not only more interesting but more effective than just spouting statistics about the homeless. Invisible people tv uses blogging, twitter, facebook, and youtube all to tell this story.
Whether or not you care about this issue, this blog is still really cool and unique.
This last video is another presentation, but I like it because it takes a look at a specific demographic of America's homeless population...children.
