This workshop will teach you how to create your own digital story. These are 2-5 minute films made of still photos and a voiceover. They tell a short, snappy story
in a format that's easily digestible to a broad audience and can be easily made with a phone and laptop and a little creativity.
This is a simple yet effective form of public engagement and is open to all. This workshop is for to everyone interested in public engagement and digital storytelling.
But it is also for those who are looking for new creative outlets for communicating their work and idea.
Attendees will participate in group activities as well as be able to bounce ideas and get feedback from fellow researchers.
