dsE Course for Artists and Creatives

Digital storytelling refers to a 2 to 5-minute audio-visual clip combining personal narrative story, photographs, short video clips, voice-over narration, and other audio materials. With digital storytelling, we provide an empowering tool for artists, creatives and art institutions to define authenticity behind their creative businesses through the audio-visual narrative of the digital story. 

• Artists and Creative Professionals.
• Any passionate individual who wants to use their creative skills and share their professional identity story with the world.

Every participant will learn

1. How to write a short personal narrative story
2. How to record voice-over for their story
3. How to plan and visualize their story and their idea through storyboarding.
4. Essential about Copyright and Creative Commons
5. Learn how to edit the digital story using the Wevideo platform

In this course, we are not teaching you how to film your video materials, we are empowering your creative idea but not giving you the knowledge on the film process. In this course, you can use your previously recorded photo and video materials - if it is about you or presenting your creative work, it can also be filmed by others. You will just need to credit them.

What we strive for is to encourage your idea to film new visual material. It can be done with your smartphone or any camera that you know how to use. For this, you have to possess essential technical knowledge about filming, which we believe everyone nowadays does.

Please see the dsE Course Info section on this page.

We will have once a week fully guided live class focusing on the module assessments. The live class is there, not just to answer your questions, but for you to have full guidance and to finish your story with success. If it happened that you can't make it anyway, you can always send an email to your educator or comment in the community. You will have our support all the way!

We will teach you how to edit through WeVideo online platform, the easiest platform for editing ever! We will send you the code and you will have free access to the platform. You will be guided through our online lectures, step by step and you will have the possibility to contact your educator any time during the course. We assure you that editing can be fun!

In this course, we are not teaching you technical skills on how to film your video materials, although, we are helping you to define and plan your visual idea through storyboard and guidance via live classes. We will empower your creative idea along with a written script and give you important tips, but video lectures will not be focusing on the film process. In this course, you can use your previously recorded photo and video materials - if it is about you or presenting your creative work, it can also be filmed by others. You will just need to give the appropriate credits to the owner of the visual material you will use.

We encourage you to film new visual material for your digital story. It can be done with your smartphone or any camera that you know how to use. For this, you have to possess essential technical knowledge about filming, which we believe everyone nowadays does. Anyway, we prepare some extra video lectures on filming tips for beginners that will help you a lot and give you confidence.

Please see the Bonuses section on this page.

We are sure that the dsE course will bring the best from you and showcase your talents, creativity, and skills through your digital story which you will share with the world. Anyhow, if you see that for some reason you are not enjoying a dsE course, please let us know in the first 7 days from the start date of your course and we will refund you.

We are organizing few courses monthly and the number of participants is limited because we want to ensure you quality live classes and guidance. When you purchase a course you will be see starting and ending dates of the course. You are then enrolled with the group and your seat is saved.

Until the start date has passed, you could not access course materials. Once this date has passed, you can access your course and materials.

Every participant enrolled for the course on a specific starting date, will start at the same time.

There are no course prerequisites and you don't have to read any materials before starting the date of your dsE course. Although, what we would suggest is that you think upfront of what would be the topic of your story and how visually you see the idea of it. This will prepare you for more efficiency in your weekly assignments!
