The process of making Digital stories requires several steps.
I will walk you through all the steps of creating my own Digital Story. Recommended resource for making Digital stories: "Digital Storytelling in the classroom. New Media Pathways to Literacy, Learning, and Creativity, 2nd edition" by Jason B. Ohler.

Step 1. Story Core
The Story Core for your Digital Story can be a real story from your life or a fiction story. Like every story it should have beginning, middle and end. It should contain challenge, problem solving scenario and transformation. My Digital story is about "Making an Effective TV Commercial".
Step 2. Story Map
After you done with Story Core, you can make your Story Map. It is recommended that you do your Story map with paper and pencil. Below I attached the file with my Story map.
Step 3. Story Script
Now you are ready to write the skit for your digital story. It recommended to be no more than 1-2 pages, double spacing.

Step 4. Story Table
To make a Digital story we need to visualize our script by adding images or video, and our voice. We need to plan carefully what images or video to use for what piece of text. Story table helps us to plan effectively. The example of my Story Table please find here.
Step 5. Production
After you found all the pictures and videos to support you text, you are ready to production part. You video should be 2-4 min.long. Make sure to include the reference list. If your story is an advertisement than do not forget to add your business contacts and promotion (optional) at the end. You are welcome to watch my iMovie.
Step 6. Reflection
Now, when I've finished the project, I am ready for reflection. I analyzed the completed work and choose things that I can use in my teaching practice. If you are interesting in my reflection on this project, you are welcome to learn more here.
