Digital Storytelling

Form and Content

Herausgegeben: Dunford, Mark; Jenkins, Tricia

Beschreibung

This edited collection brings together academics and practitioners to explore the uses of Digital Storytelling, which places the greatest possible emphasis on the voice of the storyteller. Case studies are used as a platform to investigate questions of concept, theory and practice, and to shine an interrogative light on this emergent form of participatory media. The collection examines the creative and academic roots of Digital Storytelling before drawing on a range of international examples to consider the way in which the practice has established itself and evolved in different settings across the world.

Rezensionen

"The reader-whether new to digital storytelling or a seasoned practitioner-comes away with a sense of possibilities and a deeper appreciation for digital storytelling as a means for amplifying voice and inspiring civic engagement." (Heather Gerhart, Storytelling, Self, Society, Vol. 16 (2), 2020)

"The most compelling aspects of this volume are the stories ... . The stories presented in each of these chapters are rather remarkable and, indeed, powerful. Anyone interested in modern media, narrative, social activism, communication studies, film, as well as those versed in DS scholarship, will find this a compelling read." (Katherine Daley-Bailey, Reflective Teaching, May, 2018)

"Digital Storytelling is relevant for diverse audiences. Above all, it will interest practitioners as the book showcases a number of usage scenarios and applications, while also fostering deeper reflection on practice. ... For educators involved with qualitative methodologies as well as in the creative studies fields, DS might offer an interesting outlet to explore new ways of working with students to make stories together." (Lavinia Marin, LSE Review of Books, blogs.lse.ac.uk, May, 2018)
