Project: 'Voices from the Holocaust'prject

Client: The British Library Education Service

The British Library had a set of tapes of audio testaments from Holocaust survivors which they wished to make available online with additional educational and contextual information.

Footmark worked closely with the education services department at the Library and with educational specialists to create a teacher area containing supporting material, a student area of information, audio clips and activities, and a resource 'library' of all the audio clips and factsheets.

Features:

Flash audio - each audio clip has its own web page to present the audio clip in a bespoke Flash player, a transcript of the audio for accessibility, and where possible a photograph of the speaker.

Images - all images were sourced by Footmark from worldwide archives.
