Digital Storytelling Workshop

A hands-on training component of the Digital Storytelling Festival is a three-day "Digital Storytelling Workshop" offered in advance of the Festival. The 2003 Bootcamp Workshops will be held June 7-9, at the state-of-the-art training facility of the Yavapai College, Sedona Center for Arts & Technology in Sedona, Arizona.

Three classes of maximum 12 students each, will be conducted by the instructors of The Center for Digital Storytelling. The workshop model, which was developed in 1993 by CDS co-founder Dana Atchley, has been refined and successfully taught to thousands of participants in hundreds of workshops.

The goal of the workshop is for each student to design and produce an original 3-5 minute digital story, using personal (or corporate) archives and stories. Students are encouraged to use their own materials, including photographs, video clips, artwork, and music to create their story. Participants are given advance preparation information prior to the workshop to assist them in gathering the necessary elements.

Workshops will be offered concurrently in each of the following softwares: Adobe Premiere on the Windows platform, Final Cut Pro and iMovie on the Mac platform. Participants will be required to complete a software questionaire to assist in placement.

Completed Bootcamp stories will be available at the Digital Storytelling Café for Festival audience for viewing.
