Digital+Storytelling+-+Evangelizing+in+the+Digital+World

Your ASSIGNMENT is to create a video of 30 seconds that tells a story - any kind of story. We recommend Animoto if you are new to this skill.

Following the instructions given to you in the webinar and in Animoto, please create your 30 second video using your own or stock photos. You will have to create a free Animoto account to get started.

There are various options so that you can create Animoto videos that are longer than 30-seconds. You can apply as an “educator” for a FREE ANIMOTO PLUS ACCOUNT. Or you can apply for ANIMOTO FOR A CAUSE. If you purchase an annual Animoto plan, you are able to create videos that are Full Length (i.e., longer than 30-seconds).
 * If you are already familiar with Animoto and would like to try a different storytelling tool, please do!**
