The Problem

Too many stories that should be visual never become visual.

Journalists work under constant deadline pressure. Creating a graphic can mean identifying the visual opportunity, finding the right information and assets, involving graphics resources, and moving through multiple additional production steps. For many stories, the effort simply isn't justified. The result is that potentially powerful visual storytelling never makes it to air.

HighField | Cast makes visual storytelling a natural part of the newsroom workflow.
