UMBC Digital Storytelling Workshop, Jan. 16-18, 2013
The New Media Studio will offer a three-day digital storytelling workshop on January 16, 17 and 18, 2013 (10am - 4pm). Bringing together writing, photography and audio, the digital storytelling process facilitates the telling of personal and reflective stories in the form of digital movies. Through the process of producing their own digital stories over a three-day period, workshop participants gain insight into potential application of this approach in their own teaching. For those of you not familiar with the workshop you can find more information and story examples from last year here.
The workshop is available to UMBC faculty free of charge however we ask that you commit to attending the full three days. There are a limited number of seats available for faculty from other area institutions. The fee for non-UMBC faculty will be $500.
If you are interested in reserving a seat please contact me at shewbrid@umbc.edu. Preference will be given to those who have not taken one of our workshops before, however alumni are welcome to join us if space is available.

Digital Storytelling Winter Workshop 2012
In January, 2012, the New Media Studio offered its sixth annual digital storytelling workshop. As in past years, the workshop gave faculty members an opportunity to explore digital media production while creating a personal narrative, integrating voice-over with images and sound. This year for the first time the workshop was offered as a one-credit course as part of UMBC's winter session. As a result graduate and undergraduate students joined the group, giving the workshop a new dimension.
Here are some examples of the stories produced.

Culture Shock Story
As part of her Independent Studies in the New Media Studio, Fulbright Scholar Meri Collazos Sola developed a multimedia project using digital digital storytelling to explore identity and culture shock. The project website, www.cultureshockstory.com is based on Meri's research in the Intercultural Communications program.
"This project contains the materials I will focus on for my scholarly paper. The scholarly paper should be related to some of the topics that we've done for the core courses. The main topics of the research will be intercultural competency, creativity and two up and coming new media formats: digital storytelling and personal documentary film."
