From November 8-12, 2011, two teams of multimedia journalists collaborated with the MediaStorm team at our MediaStorm Multimedia Workshop. Participants spent a week reporting, editing, and producing Broken Lines and Voice.

Broken Lines by Martine Fougeron, Richard Kendall, Frank de Ruiter, and Simon Schorno
Joe Soll never met his birth parents. Raised by upper-middle class New Yorkers, he spent half of his life tormented by the death of his mother. Watch it now.

Voice by Christian Als, Edith Champagne, and Janine Boreland
Ian Willey had his first experience rhyming in second grade. Now at 28, Willey is pursuing his dream of becoming a hip hop artist. The motivation behind his rap comes from an unexpected place — 90 fifth grade students at a school in Harlem. Watch it now.
