Interativity- Map of Pride

As part of my Online journalism module we are about to embark, and should have already made a major step towards creating a 'flash' interactive for the UCE newsite .

As part of a group of students I have paired up with Charlotte Dunkley to produce an interactive map of PRIDE07, showing the route of the parade, shops and sponsors involved and external links etc.

I have been in contact for a month or so now, with Pride Event Director David Babbington, and he has provided interesting interview material to use towards our interactive map. I may also approach him for some Video footage for our interactive map, but with his schedule involving preorations for Pride07 I doubt that I will have much luck.

Fingers crossed EH?

David loves the site!

As you know I have been emailing David Babbington, the Events Director of Birmingham Pride '07 , well I recently received an email apologising about him not emailing my interview questions back sooner, which was brilliant knowing that he was still planning to respond to me, despite a very busy schedule. Not only that though- he praised our efforts on the UCE Newsite

LOOK...he loves it:




So we have people interested, lets keep these hits high!
