Digital Stories: Storytelling

Seven Steps

The Script

DESCRIBE - What do you see, hear, know?
ANALYZE - What could it mean?
REFLECT & RELATE - Why does it matter? How does it relate?

One double-spaced page of narrative usually results in a 2-3 minute digital story,  approximately 300 words. Using a word-processor, double-space the script. It will help you deliver the narrative and also document editorial changes with ease.
