Digital Storytelling
The BBC, the Guardian, Christian Aid and Medecins Sans Frontieres are just some of the organisations who truly understand the power and cost effectiveness of digital storytelling through audio slideshows. In this one day workshop, sounddelivery will show you how to combine images with sound to tell compelling stories.
You will be taught the skills you need to collect stories, case studies and other relevant audio material, which you can combine with still images to create engaging digital stories to promote the work of your organisation. You will gain practical experience of audio editing, working with photographs and sharing your slideshows online.
By the end of the workshop, you will have the knowledge and confidence to create your own audio slideshow. You will also have a clear ideas as to how it can be used as a communiations and/or fundraising tool.
