Wow! - Came with my story idea - but still not written. I know this story - it is the "I" story for me to share at this time. The challenge is making it focused enough to be in 3 minutes and 250 words and still have meaning to me as well as perhaps those who will listen.
The group is great. 11 of us. All with some great stories. We worked today in the story circle. Listening to other's stories and asking questions. The workshop format of individuals coming from distances allows for sharing you may not do with those you are with everyday. It has allowed us all to let down the guards and take the risks. This is helpful in finding the voice needed to make an effective digital story.
I am still all over the place - too many words, the wrong words, the right words. Defining my message. As I narrow it down - I need to be ready to record by morning. You record your audio - your voice telling your story - then you move to the visuals and other things.
Many of us in the group are somehow connected to education and suffer from the academic voice. That is where the wordiness comes.
Day two - voice overs, pulling the visuals together. I will share more after the story is published as to the process.
