It has been fun to experiment with digital storytelling. I had fun with popcorn

Loading...I’ve been thinking about the challenge of using a variety of tools to tell the same story and I’m not sure if that is the best approach. It does help you understand what each tool does, but not every tool lends itself to every story.…
