We've just launched an enhanced video news offering following an innovative distribution deal with the Press Association and Octopus Media Technology.
Press Association video journalists will be supplying over 100 voiced packages a week to the website covering news, sport and entertainment. Each package will be around 90 seconds in length and cover a single story with voice over where appropriate. In addition, a further 100 short 20 seconds clips on single stories will be provided for use alongside text and pictures as part of the digital storytelling process.
The solution from video specialists Octopus Media Technology allows the Independent to integrate the high quality video easily into their website with improved quality, functionality and user experience.
It's all very exciting. Have a look at the offering on the home page and tell us what you think.
