More PowerPoint presentations from Rebecca
I apologize that my example is not about our library...I wanted to just use photos quickly available, and the "story" is much longer than 5 minutes! I enjoyed doing this, and using powerpoint also, since I have only used powerpoint in a minimal way before this. I know this is minimal also, but still adding the voice narration was a step up for me. When the slides transition the voice narration breaks momentarily, and that would be something to work around, as I was talking while transitioning. Doing this made me think about how a picture can help your audience attend to what you are saying, and also of course distract the audience if the image does not really "mesh" with what you are saying. I found a lot of the examples very monotone and repetitive, especially those about some particular event. But there's a lot of challenge in this kind of show....I think mine is probably not very earthshaking also.
Oops...turns out I put it into Slideshare and now it is minus the narration. Now I've put it into authorStream and am waiting to see if it will "process" successfully. I definitely think there's a place for digital storytelling in our library. I'm hoping we can do some oral history work with our older patrons using these tools.
