Foundations of personal storytelling (online/intensive course)
This course will take you through the full process of telling your own story: from choosing a story to using a wide range of creative techniques to develop the story, you will work with a small group of other storytellers to craft a story that has significance for you. The creative techqniues will be tailored to you and the group and will include visual, written, spoken and embodied forms of storytelling, via online platforms. You will learn to record and produce your own story. You will have the option to make a digital version of the story using open access or very low cost apps and software. At the end of the storytelling process, you will share your stories through a group screening. Finally you will have the opportunity to decide if and how you want to share your story beyond your storytelling group.
Course limited to 12 participants. Up to 4 discounted places available for researchers working in the global South or from small organisations.
