Digital storytelling sounds very simple: Help people tell their own stories with simple digital production tools for video, images and audio. However, it takes significant experience to make the effort worthwhile for the storytellers in telling their stories successfully. Joe Lambert and his colleagues at the Center for Digital Storytelling have been working for more than ten years in this direction, and the book is full of their experience. General thoughts on the cultural value of storytelling blend with examples of successful digital stories, applications to different areas, suggestions for successful facilitation and lots of how-to knowledge on performing a digital storytelling workshop. To me, a real strength of the book is that much of the material is inspirational for further thought also in related fields, such as digital storytelling communities and other transformational efforts based on storytelling in general. no reviews | add a review
Listen deeply. Tell stories.nbsp;This is thenbsp;mantra ofnbsp;the Center for Digital Storytelling (CDS) in Berkeley California, which, since 1998 has worked with nearly 1,000 organizations around the world and trained more than 15,000 people in the art of digital storytelling. In this revised and updated edition of the CDS's popular guide to digital storytelling, co-founder Joe Lambert details the history and methods of digital storytelling practices. Usingnbsp;a "7 Steps"nbsp;approach, Lambert helps storytellers identify the fundamentals of dynamic digital storytelling--from seeing the story, assembling it, and sharing it.nbsp;As in the last edition, readers of the fourth edition will also find new explorations of the applications of digital storytelling and updated appendices that provide resources for budding digital storytellers, including information about past and present CDS-affiliated projects and place-based storytelling, a narrative-based approach to understanding experience and landscape. A companion website further brings the entire storytelling process to life. Over the years, the CDS's work has transformed the way that community activists, educators, health and human services agencies, business professionals, and artists think about story, media, culture, and the power of personal voice in creating change. For those who yearn to tell multimedia stories, Digital Storytelling is the place to begin. No library descriptions found. |
