Digital Storytelling Made Easy!

Rediscover and Tell Your Story in a WFH World

Well-crafted digital stories are like potato chips. You can’t stop at one. Digital Storytelling, sometimes called “the baby brother of filmmaking,” opens up the wonderful world of turning non-techie storytellers into novice filmmakers. You could also call Digital Storytelling “the Swiss knife of communication” because there are so many ways you can wield its power.
 
In the face of our global unfolding COVID19 shared history, in the confines of our WFH (Work-from-Home) world, we each experience our own unfolding personal stories. This course is not only about telling your story, but rediscovering who you are and creating your new story.
 
Digital Storytelling Made Easy! is part ONE of of a TWO part Suite. By the end of the two courses, you will complete and showcase your two-minute digital story.

This Suite in a face-to-face setting is valued at S$990.


Story Coach Angeline Koh was honoured to introduce Digital Storytelling at FinTech Festival 2018, the world's largest platform for the global FinTech community. This was her trailer for the presentation.

I shared what we learnt with our colleagues today. Your course is very different from others that I attended – it’s easy to understand yet has so much substance, allowing us to think deeper about how to apply it at work, without having to use complicated tools.
