Digital Storytelling Swansea
 

WELCOME

DS:S Digital Storytelling Swansea run courses and training all across South Wales. Telling a good story is one of the oldest and most effective ways of getting people to sit up and listen to you. Digital storytelling is an exciting new art form that combines the traditional appeal of storytelling with the creative wonders of digital technology. With the right help, anyone can make a digital story. There is no need for prior writing or technical experience and the benefits are potentially life-changing.

It is an empowering process that challenges digital and social exclusion. In the course of the project, people share important parts of their lives with each other, learn new skills, work creatively on how best to present their stories and express themselves in their own words.

Digital stories can give a voice to people whose voices are rarely heard. The stories can be serious and moving, and they can be light-hearted and hilarious. They can also help to raise awareness of personal or community issues and promote the work of campaigning or self-help groups, seeking solutions to social problems. The finished films can be easily posted on the internet, projected onto large screens at conferences or shown on television.
