NZZ: Multimedia project about Podladtchikov
On January 31, 2014, the NZZ will launch the multimedia portrait of Swiss snowboarder Iouri Podladtchikov. Five chapters portray the athlete, who is one of the favorites to compete at the Winter Olympics in Sochi.
"You only fly once" illuminates the different facets of Podladtchikov. Author Christof Gertsch accompanied him for six months - for example, on the slopes, in the skate hall and while taking photos. The portrait of the successful halfpipe world champion is published not only in German, but also in English. In addition, the German version will be published as an e-book.
After "Fukushima - No Time for Anger", this is the second multimedia project of the "Neue Zürcher Zeitung". More than ten people from the fields of sports, data journalism and design contributed to the portrait on NZZ.ch during the last days before the Olympic Games.
