Morrissey College of Arts & Sciences
This is a one-credit pass/fail course. Storytelling is an essential part of every community, organization, and business. However, the channels through which stories are told have evolved. With the advent of the internet, digital media now combines tradition with technology. Narratives can be told in new, multidimensional ways with video, audio, blogs, text, images, and graphics. The purpose of this course is to help you understand why communication professionals and civilizations throughout human history create and value stories. You will also learn how to employ a variety of digital technologies to create compelling content. This will be achieved by examining the underlying concepts and technical processes involved in telling stories for delivery on the desktop, the mobile device or tablet.
