What is Digital Storytelling? Here
is the definition from Wikipedia:
Digital Storytelling reflects both a broad
reference to the emergent new forms of digital narratives (web-based
stories, interactive stories, hypertexts, and narrative computer games) as well as the specific
approach of creating short digital films developed by the Center
for Digital Storytelling. As an emerging area of creative work, the
definition of digital storytelling is still the subject of much debate.
Typically,
a digital story
is a 2-5 minute film that combines a narrated piece of personal writing,
photographic images and a musical soundtrack.
Why?
The philosophy behind this type of digital
storytelling is one of using technology to enable those without a technical
background to produce works that tell a story using moving images and
sound (from Wikipedia).
How?
Search the internet in groups and find
Photo Story 3 tutorials that you like. Then, learn in your group how
to use the program to create a photo story of your own - learning by
doing!!!
Here
is one of the tutorials made
by the Instructional Technology Program graduate students at the University
of Houston.
