The integration of mobile documentary media production with Geographical Information System (GIS) storymapping projects are a critical new literacy for students and citizens. With increasingly better quality cameras on our smart phones, we now carry a mobile film studio in our pockets. With ESRI’s Storymaps technologies, teaching students or community members how to to create beautiful web-based projects that integrate all kinds of maps and media, has become an accessible process.
With the Stories-in-Motion 10 week course, StoryCenter’s Joe Lambert returns to two of his favorite projects of the last 20 years, storytelling for mobile devices, and story-mapping.org, his effort to geo-locate stories about place, change, and resistance. In this course, participants will reflect on changes in their immediate communities to create stories using app-based photography and video on iOS and Android devices, edit in WeVideo, and explore the ArcGIS StoryMaps and Google Maps softwares to create multi-point story map documentary projects.
This workshop requires attendance at ten online sessions on consecutive Wednesdays from Feb 18 through Apr 22, 2026. Each session is two hours and begins at 10am Pacific Time.
Registration closes a week prior, or when registration is at capacity. For questions, send an email to workshop@storycenter.com.
