"Snow Fall - The Avalanche at Tunnel Creek" is the canonical NYT example. http://www.nytimes.com/projects/2012/snow-fall/#/?part=tunnel-creek It was talked about a LOT. https://www.google.com/search?q=snow+fall+nyt a "six-month sixteen-person multimedia project", "immersive story", "spectacle".
I'm not sure if there's a particular name for the UI style(?), but someone replicated the dynamic-scrolling aspects in an hour, and then NYT's lawyers descended: https://medium.com/meta/503b9c22080b
Well, it sounds like the issue was that they copied the specific images and video at first too, *not* just the general style (transition as you scroll, etc.).
Then, they removed the images and video, but I think the Times lawyers either didn't get it, or just decided to play hardball.
