What is Digital
Storytelling?
Digital stories are short,
personal, multimedia tales.
Bringing together video, audio,
text, photography, digital
technology are the tools that
allows us to create stories
about our world and invite
people to be a part of them.
New kinds of technology, new
kinds of storytelling!
