David Casuto - Telling Your Stories with Technology (8 weeks)

Telling Your Stories with Technology (8 weeks)

What life experiences would you like to share with your family and friends? Do you want to record your memoirs in a way that you never have? Digital storytelling is an easy-to-create audio/visual medium for immortalizing your legacy. We will learn how to use simple, free software tools to combine photos, images, music, and your voice to tell your stories, whether fact or fiction. You will create your own personal CD or Web site that documents stories in a way you may never have imagined. Please bring your own laptop, or call the OLLI office at 510.642.9934 to arrange for a rental.
