Digital Storytelling

Catalog description

Stories shape both our personal identities and our culture. Stories move us, entertain us, and affect social change and public awareness. This Digital Storytelling course focuses on the theory and practice of narrative composition in digital environments, including text, image, audio, and video. Students learn to compose rhetorically dynamic and engaging digital stories that explore a variety of types, techniques, audiences, and purposes (for personal, academic, and professional contexts). The course explores critical and creative approaches to narrative and visual design while attending to the interplay of form and content.
