YouTube Digital Story Collection

2008-07-01T20:24:00.000-07:00

Have spent some time trawling YouTube for digital story examples that stood out in some way. There are a lot of American examples here as might be expected but I have included some Australian ones as well.

They're not all brilliant technically and some definitely stray from a strict digital story definition but they all have 'something'. For example, the audio quality in Princess Amara is definitely very poppy but that storyteller is wonderful.

There are a couple of 'how to-s' including mine and a couple of other odds and sods like the intro promo for the Melbourne Digital storytelling conference. Just click on the video button (2nd from left) and then roll your mouse over the bottom of the YouTube video window and you'll see the thumbnails for the collection come up.

As they used to say in the coffee shops - 'Enjoy'.

Wow. I've been looking at the list of characters and settings and thinking that there are going to be some amazing scripts written and wonderful digital stories created over the next three weeks.

I'm looking forward to it.
