MondayDigital Story TellingWhat makes a great story?
When the character wants something that s/he must work to obtain, overcoming obstacles, facing complications, and resolving conflicts within themselves and against others or nature. In the end the character is transformed. A great story can be felt and visualized. In this unit you will select a story (you can write it, but I encourage you to choose one already written) and you will retell it visually, to evoke emotion and meaning. At the end, you will assess your story and others. To get started watch we will review the three video's below in workshop, talk about story parts, and tools you can use. TuesdayFirst, you must pick a story.

What are the practical steps to take?
Story Narrative Steps-
1. Choose and Map. Students choose the story and the best format then create a story map (see above). Week 1
2. Write. Students write the narrative they will record. Week 1
3. Story table (or storyboard?) As discussed above, you will need to decide what kind of approach you want to use to organize your production. I cover story tables in depth on another site of mine. Weeks 1-2
4. Gather: Images and music following fair use laws (get permission, give credit on any photo or illustration that is NOT yours. Use no more than 10% of music tracks and you can NEVER ever make a profit on this.)
5. Record. Students record themselves speaking their narrative. Week 2
6. Listen. Students listen to their narrative for purposes of revision. Week 2
7. Organize and Order images and background music.
8. Done? Students and/or teachers decide whether the narrative is finished. If not, is this because, a) it needs rewriting or b) it needs re-recording for technical or expression reasons? (optional office hours week 2-3)
9. Next steps. Students proceed with editing. (weeks 2-3)
