During spring break 2010, I worked at the Huffington Post Investigative Fund and created an interactive narrative for their report on health care claims with Illustrator and Flash. The report will be posted on huffpostfund.org soon.

Interactive Narrative Sample

This interaction starts with a pseudo patient at left hand side. With a heart beating motion, it can easily draw people's attention and has them start reading from there. After reading the story, users can mouse-over three panels at right and see the changes of their claim in each stage of the medical lost ratio. There will be a interactive bar chart shows up at left when users hover the panels. Additionally, users can also click on "details" and a pop-up window will show up with more information.

Note: This narrative will be used along with HuffPost Fund's report and HuffPost Fund have the right to change the content for better use.
