This friday I have to stand in front of 22 highschool kiddies here in the Netherlands...
I will lead a workshop on storytelling with the use of new media. Now these kids know nothing about html/flash etc. and that is not nescessary. I ask them to bring in material for the next session with which a presentation can be created later on. I will teach them a bit on new media, the power of internet, digital cameras etc. etc.
They will be asked to create a storyboard including image/animation/sound/text..etc.
During the lesson I have access to internet, a beamer and huge screen so I can show examples...
The theme is about dreams vs. reality. And it should have a personal touch to it. Think of ambitions, sports (extreme sports)...things they can imagine but also reflect their daily life...this sounds a bit complicated..but it is really quite simple.
I just want to see some sites/movies that tell personal stories of people:
preferrably using as much media as possible..(sound/text/movie/imag... etc...)
These may also be blogs of worldtravellers etc.
Please post some good examples!
Thanks in advance,

ok...
I will keep it short.
i need examples of storytelling sites, whether it's in the form of animation, or plain html, or quicktime, flash etc.
They either reflect dreams/imaginations and/or real life experiences, preferrably extreme ones ( extreme sports, war photographer, soldier, F1 driver or whatever..dig?)
Thank you.

I should've called this thread: "Bush on porn in Iraq"

the kids might get into this. they can create their own movie. found the link in the pbs a few days ago.
maybe it will help

thanks Bonseff..
But I'd rather see sites that tell stories....as examples.. dig?
They just need to collect their material...then depending on their skills either the pupil or I will dump it in a presentation of some sort...
come on!
If I am too vague, please say so..

yo, did you figure somethin out?

Since there arent that many people replying - do check out my site but it doesnt fit your category though. Its not the story of a war guy, f1 racer etc etc.
Its a story that goes in reverse and is written in the form of poems and images.

damn, also started on a new name?
must be flagging week here....
ha, no thanks..
guess I need to find this on myself...
serious googling.
- binaryman0
i dont know what happened. i really have no idea. two names got killed one day. no flags and no warning. so moved onto the third one.
i wrote to them asking why i was killed but of course they didnt reply. THEY are all powerful and we are just slaves.

oh well, i guess it's just if you post a lot here you might make "mistakes" you aren't even aware of.
No hate to the NT® moderators tho...
I am thankful for this site...and it is their service...
no hard feelings...just surprised..
carry on.
;)
