Digital stories

Last Tuesday saw Jude C, Michael N and I descend to Penrith for a time of playing with digital storytelling with Robyn Jay and Alex Hayes from the NSW Learnscope team. It was a great day with people from other teams based at OTEN. See the digitales wiki for mor info.
I played with making a walk through of a cave at Jenolan whilst Michael did a story of the first 12 (?) months of Miriam's childhood. All this in the name of learning.
As aways I wanted to stretch the limit of the software - not to be content with a frame by frame narrative, I want a continuous talk with music background across the lot. Well it is getting there. The finished version with sound will premier on google videos sometime in the not too distant future.
This was followed up with Alex showing us the uses of de.li.cous and other tools.
We even watched some home movies.

A great day - thanks Robyn and Alex
