Week 7 Digital Story Telling

This week we learned about digital story telling. Digital story telling is a short, first person narrative, created by combining recorded voice, still and moving images, and music or other sounds. Teachers can use this for educational purposes. For example, show a tutorial type thing to a class to show the class how to do something. People can use digial story telling to tell their own stories too. For example, a lot of people use youtube to show an event or reinact something. A couple digital story telling tools are one true media, rock you, imovie, animoto and picasa. We had to create our own story using one of these tools and I used animoto.

Here is another example of digital story telling:



The video I put up is a the video that my pofessor used as an example in class..."Where the Hell is Matt"

How this relates to PR...
This relates to PR because PR firms can use digital story telling to create a message to the public and to their consumers. They can use this to promote something their company is representing. And, as you can see, youtube is becoming more popular so they can use youtube to create a message or ad for their audience.
