digital story (dig·i·tal sto·ry)
A short, first person video-narrative created by combining recorded voice, still and moving images, and music or other sounds.
digital storyteller (dig·i·tal sto·ry·tell·er)
Anyone who has a desire to document life experience, ideas, or feelings through the use of story and digital media. Usually someone with little to no prior experience in the realm of video production but time to spend a few days attending a workshop and developing a story with creative support and technical assistance from compassionate, highly experienced facilitators.
Center for Digital Storytelling (cen·ter
for dig·i·tal sto·ry·tell·ing; CDS)
An international nonprofit training, project development, and research organization that assists youth and adults around the world in using digital media tools to craft and record meaningful stories from their lives and share these stories in ways that enable learning, build community, and inspire justice.
Our primary focus is on building partnerships with community, educational, and business institutions to develop large-scale, customized digital storytelling initiatives in health, social services, education, historic and cultural preservation, community development, human rights, environmental justice, and other sectors.
At the core of our work is a commitment to narrative, an enduring respect for the power of individual voices and a deep set of values
and principles that recognize how sharing and bearing witness to
stories can lead to learning, action, and positive change.
Over the last fifteen years, our work has spanned the United States
and Canada and spread around the world. Our clients
and funders
include grassroots groups and organizations across the globe.
