We handle the hard part
Shorthand creates multiple versions of your uploaded images and ensures the most appropriate version is served for each screen size.
- Have confidence that your scroll-based animations work on all phones, tablets, and monitors.
- Set ‘focus points’ to make sure that the most important parts of your images are always shown.
- For bespoke illustrations, optionally create separate treatments for mobile screens.
Media Gallery
Incorporate galleries of images and video into your story.
- Showcase multiple images and video in a fully responsive grid.
- Drag-and-drop multiple media files into the Shorthand editor and resize and arrange them as needed.
- Your readers can select individual images or video to view in a full-screen lightbox.
Simple testing
Streamline your QA and easily test your stories on all screen sizes prior to publication with a simple preview link or QR code.
- Remove the guess-work from testing on mobile and tablet screens.
- Get feedback and sign-off from your colleagues and collaborators — even those outside of your Shorthand organisation.
“Shorthand removes all the technical complexities involved with digital storytelling. The platform allows non-coders to build a creative that has that deep, immersive feel — and in a fraction of the time.”Scott Peakcocke | Senior editor for data journalism | AJC
