Basic
Workshop
Over the last 14 years, our workshop practice has been honed and tested
in a wide variety of contexts, with a diverse number of people, from the
techno-savvy to the techno-phobic. Participating in a workshop is the
best way to grasp our work. The sense of connection, of discovery or risk,
and of reward, is profound.
The
goal of the basic workshop is to design and produce a 3-5 minute digital
story. Students craft and record first-person narratives, collect still
images and music with which to illustrate their pieces, and are guided
through computer tutorials which enable them, with teacher support, to
edit their own stories.
Workshops
are held as all day, contiguous three day intensives, involving 8-12 participants.
Participants are given materials prior to the workshop to assist them
in preparation, including suggestions about script writing, image selection,
and use of video clips.
We
offer introductory Workshops for Educators,
advanced Train the Trainer Workshops and customized
workshops as well. To learn more about our customized workshops, please
