Digital Storytelling
Digital storytelling is the practice of using digital tools and multimedia elements—such as text, images, audio, and video—to tell a story. It combines traditional narrative techniques with modern technology to create engaging and immersive experiences.
I first learned of Digital Storytelling from StoryCenter in Berekely, CA where I spent the summer of 2018 taking workshops. When COVID hit in 2022, I had the opportunity to facilitate workshops with a number of groups through Story Gorge. These workshops, and the voices and stories that come out of them, give me life!
