Interactive Narratives: After the Asylum


This website has been featured on interactivenarratives.org- a directory of websites noted for engaging visual storytelling that fosters interaction, discussion and learning.

The subject matter is about people who suffer from long term mental problems and the lack of asylum care for them.



The front page uses a horizontal sliding slideshow displaying slides of typography and photography, much like film opening credits.  


Structure

  • Horizonal sliding layout that introduces 3 case studies
  • A article page for each personal account. Uses combination of video and text, documentary style

Conclusion

The rest of the website is structured into 3 different ‘article’ looking pages, one for each case study which focuses on 3 personal stories about their lives and how asylum care has helped them. The documentary style website is good at informing and encouraging support for more asylum institutions.
