Step 1: Decide on the Story You Want to Tell
You probably already have a person or subject in mind. Think small. Focus. Don't get caught up trying to convey
all the aspects of someone's life — you're not writing the great American novel, you're creating what will
optimally be a three- to five-minute work that recounts a personal tale and reveals a small truth.

What form should your story take? In their decade of leading workshops, Lambert and Mullen list these main
varieties of digital stories:

-The story about someone important. Character stories center on a person who's touched you in a deep way.
Often, these stories reveal as much about the narrator as about the subject of the piece. Memorial stories
pay tribute to someone who passed on but left a lasting impression.

-The story about an event in your life. Travel stories — stories about a personal journey or passage — can be
effective if they result in the narrator being transformed by the experience in some way. Accomplishment stories
about achieving a goal, graduating from school, or winning an honor can easily fit into the framework of the
desire-struggle-realization structure of a classic story.

-The story about a place in your life. Our sense of place serves as the focal point of a great many profound
stories.

-The story about what I do. People find value in their work, hobbies, or social commitments and can weave
wonderful stories from their experiences in each.

-Recovery stories. Sharing the experience of overcoming a tragedy, challenge, or personal obstacle is an
archetype that always has the potential to move audiences.

-Love stories. We all want to know how someone proposed, met a spouse, experienced the birth of a first child,
or came to terms with a parent. Exploring these kinds of relationships helps affirm our own.

-Discovery stories. These stories probe how we uncovered a truth or learned how to do something.

Now, choose one type of story that appeals to you.

Step 2: Gather Your Materials
Start collecting memories. The most powerful images are often discovered during a treasure hunt in the family
attic. Start gathering old photos, vintage film reels, digital video, flyers, mementos — anything that holds
emotional resonance. Don't think you have to go out and visually capture a story with a camcorder or camera.
Use what you have! Older "found materials" usually prove to pack more of an emotional wallop than new footage.

Step 3: Begin Writing Your Script
Next, start jotting down ideas. Discuss your ideas with family and friends. Play out a rough story in your head.

Sketch out a script that you'll soon record with your own voice. Resist the temptation to take the easy way out
and create a story with only images and music. People want to hear a personal voice. Don't be self-conscious
about how your voice sounds; we all think we sound odd on tape.

Draft a short script. That's where many people get bogged down. Get past the fear of committing words to paper.
Some tips:
-Get personal. Forget everything you've been taught about using a dispassionate, authoritative, essay-like voice.
This isn't an essay contest. People want to hear your voice. The story must be told from your point of view.

-Write lousy first drafts. Don't edit as you go. Editing and writing use different parts of the brain. Let it
spill out. Get the main elements of your story down on paper, then go back and edit later.

-Write short. You'll be surprised at how much you can convey with a few words and some key images.

-Read your script aloud as you're fine-tuning it. Eschew big, fancy words (like "eschew"); use plain speech.

-Don't hold back. Be real. You need to reach an emotional depth, and sometimes that can only be achieved by
revealing uncomfortable truths. Ultimately, however, it's up to you to make a profoundly personal decision about
what material you want to share — and with whom.

-Look for a narrative arc for your story. All stories — even three-minute gems — have a beginning, middle,
and end. The beginning tells the premise of your story: it sets up the dramatic tension that should hold
throughout the story. The middle outlines conflicts along the way. The end is the destination, revealing a small
discovery, revelation, or insight. This is sometimes called the desire-action-realization model.
(But not by anyone we know!) Will the guy get the girl? Will the hero prevail? Will the sleuth solve the mystery?
With a three-minute script, you don't have time to indulge detours. Get to the payoff.

-Work on the pace. Many consider pacing to be the true secret of successful storytelling. The rhythm and tempo
of a story is what sustains an audience's interest. Experiment. Lambert and Mullen write, "Good stories breathe.
They move along generally at an even pace, but once in a while they stop. They take a deep breath and proceed."

-Trust your voice. All of us have our own distinctive style of storytelling. Trust yours.

-Read your script to a friend when you think you've finished. Very often, your confidant will point out glaring
omissions, help firm up the language of a passage, or help you identify your true voice.

Step 4: Prep Your Equipment
You'll need to purchase or borrow these pieces of equipment:

-A desktop computer or laptop.

-Video software such as Apple iMovie, Adobe Final Cut Pro, Adobe Premiere, or another software application
designed to help you tell stories.

-A (desktop) scanner, if you want to include traditional photos in your story.
Additionally, if you plan to record interviews, you'll need:

-A recording device: for video, a camcorder; for audio, a portable digital recorder like an iRiver or an analog
cassette recorder (if you use analog video or audio, you'll also need to convert it to digital).

-A handheld microphone for audio interviews.

-Headphones.

The Interview Route

If you want to rely on found materials in the attic and add a narrative and musical voice-over, that's great.

Sometimes, though, you may want to conduct an interview with someone, most likely the subject of your story or
her friends or relatives. Or, you may want someone to videotape or interview you. Either way, make sure you
practice using your equipment before you sit down for the interview. Begin with some idle conversation. A minute
or so after you begin, you may want to stop, rewind, and listen to the recording to make sure everything is
working properly.

People like to see faces and hear voices. If you have enough photos of the story subject, snippets of an audio
interview with the person can often add an interesting counterpoint to your voice-over narrative. Try to find a
quiet location, or one that's appropriate to the subject. If you're recording video, make sure the lighting is
bright enough to see the subject, but not so bright that he or she is washed out, as in direct sunlight.

In some cases, people find that talking into an audio recording device makes them self-conscious. Sometimes a
friend can assist by interviewing you about the subject or person your story is about. Try using a digital
recorder so that no conversion from analog tape to digital is required.

If you're interviewing another person, it's best to wear headphones while recording. Your headphones will tell
you exactly what you'll hear in the finished recording. Adjust the microphone position for the optimum sound.
The best setup typically involves moving the microphone between the questioner and storyteller. Hold it about
seven inches from the speaker's mouth, and use a light touch to avoid the rumbling of mike-handling noise.

Feel free to ask questions spontaneously or to read from a prepared set of questions. Take breaks as needed.
Don't make noise when the storyteller is talking, like, "uh huh?" or "really?" Instead, use visual cues like
nodding your head. Make sure the storyteller's gaze isn't wandering off into a hundred directions.

If your story depends on your reading from a script while being videotaped, you might consider ponying up for
one of the software programs that will scroll your script down the computer screen like a teleprompter. The $250
ePodcast Producer from Industrial Audio Software is another option.

Step 5: Create a Storyboard
Professionals have used storyboards for decades to plot out the sequences of events that unfold in a movie,
TV show, cartoon, or commercial. This is where you'll plot out your visual materials to make them align with
your voice-over. (Some people feel more comfortable plotting out the images first before beginning the script,
but go with what works for you.)

A storyboard is simply a place to plan out a visual story on two levels: 1) Time — What happens in what order?
and 2) Interaction — How does the voiceover and music work with the images or video?

The easiest way to begin this process is with a small stack of index cards. Take each visual element that you
plan to use and lay it out on your desk or kitchen table. Next, place a single index card below each image.
On the index cards, jot down the main words that you'll be reading aloud as the image appears in the story;
make sure that you give each element a chance to breathe rather than rushing through them in an effort to pack
in more imagery.

A good rule of thumb is to use no more than 15 images and no more than two minutes of video. As a general rule,
four to six seconds is the ideal time for an image to appear on-screen, though feel free to linger longer on a
few key images. A handful of good images makes a more powerful story than a scattershot of random photos that
fail to connect to the narration. If you get stalled writing your script, try jotting down thoughts on an index
card next to an image and let the cards serve as your script. Just write one true thing, and the rest of the
words will flow.

I highly recommend looking at successful short works to get a sense of the rhythm, pace, and economy of scale
involved in digital storytelling; often you'll be surprised by how few images are needed to convey a story.

Step 6: Digitize Your Media
You can begin this process earlier, but be aware that the production work involved in creating a short personal
story can take many, many hours. Set aside enough time to do it right.

If you're using old photos, you'll need a flatbed scanner. Scan them and save them to a single folder on your
computer. If you're using digital photos, make sure they're in JPEG format. If you have old 16-mm film footage,
you'll probably need to send it to a shop that specializes in converting analog film to digital video.

Keep in mind that your video will be horizontal in form, so crop accordingly. Don't distort vertical photos
into horizontal ones, but realize that strong vertical shapes will appear with lots of black on both sides.
Don't reduce the size of the image to the size your movie will appear: You generally want them in the
720x540-pixel range; the details will be lost if you reduce them much further. But don't sweat the dimensions
too much: Today all video-editing programs will shrink images down to their proper dimensions.

Step 7: Record a Voice-Over
You may decide that the microphone built into your laptop or desktop computer will suffice for recording your
narration. If you want a more polished production, the Center for Digital Storytelling recommends:

-A 4-channel mixer.

-A condenser microphone (Shure, AKG).

-A boom microphone stand.

-An aspiration guard — a light covering over the microphone to prevent letters like p's from popping (optional).

-A microphone cable.

-A stereo-phono to stereo-mini cable.

The Center for Digital Storytelling recommends that you record your voice-over at the same quality level that
you record your musical soundtrack: 16-bit, 44 kHz.

Many software programs are available to capture audio from an external sound source like a microphone. On a PC,
these include the built-in Sound Recorder software, audio shareware, and several professional-level audio- and
video-production software packages. The free, open-source program Audacity can capture sound from either a
computer's built-in mike or an external microphone.

Above all, speak slowly in a conversational voice. Don't make it sound like you're reading from a script.

Step 8: Add Music
Choose music that evokes the rhythm and pace of your story. For many people, this is the easiest part of the
process. Most of us have soundtracks running in our heads that reflect the mood of the story we want to convey.
The most effective tracks are often instrumental: classical, ambient, folk or jazz, with no vocals.

Next, go out and grab the music in digital form: Use a high-quality mp3 or rip a track from a favorite CD with
one of the dozens of free CD-ripper programs on the market. (I prefer MusicMatch Jukebox.) If you're recording
a friend performing original music, even better. Next, import the track into your video-editing program. If
you're working in iMovie, when you import the MP3 you'll see it as an audio clip at the bottom of your timeline.

Consider Copyright

If you plan on publishing your work to the Web, you're likely violating copyright laws if you use an entire song
as the soundtrack to your video. (See Ourmedia's fair use guidelines.) It's much smarter to use podsafe music
(and, no, the fact that you're not making money from your story makes no difference under copyright laws). The
same rules apply when appropriating copyrighted snippets of television shows or old movies. Use Google to help
you find podsafe video and audio.

Finding a talented friend to play an original work on the piano or by strumming the guitar also solves this
problem.

Step 9: Edit Your Story
Make sure you have all the elements of your story in your video-editing program. If you haven't done so already,
import all images, video, your voice-over, and musical elements.

Next, bring the images or videos down into the timeline to match the layout of your storyboard.

It's time to create an initial rough cut before adding transitions or special effects. The draft version gives
you an overview of your project and spotlights areas where images or video are insufficient to carry the story.

Next, add titles to the beginning and end of your story. You may also want to overlay text onto an image or
video. Avoid the urge to get too jazzy with typefaces or colors: Use a straightforward typeface that's easy to
read.

Now comes the hard part: adding transitions — a simple cross-dissolve generally works best — and altering the
length of each visual element to make sure it corresponds properly with the voice-over. Often, storytellers find
that the "Ken Burns effect" on a Mac is a good way to add visual interest to an image, panning across and zooming
into a photo to highlight an expression or important element.

The music is the last element to add (you may want to mute it until you're ready to tackle the soundtrack, usually
by unchecking a small box in the timeline next to the music clip). When you're ready to add music, iMovie's
controls easily let you adjust the volume to reduce the music volume during the voiceover. It's generally best
to fade the music to a low level but not to drop it out completely for the sake of continuity.

Expect to spend a few hours editing your story to get it just right. Don't overproduce: often the spontaneity
and directness of the initial drafts get lost with too much polishing.

Step 10: Share Your Story
Almost finished! Now you need to produce your video in its final form. In iMovie, you can burn a DVD by launching
iDVD. If you want to publish your story to the Web, choose Export>Expert Settings, click the Share button, and
choose Export: Movie to MPEG-4. You can also export your file as an H.264 video for the iPod or as a QuickTime
movie. I recommend MPEG-4 at a high bitrate of 500 or 600. Or, you can produce it as an H.264 video
(the compression is stunning) and simply switch the format suffix from Apple's quirky .m4v to .mp4.

You can also create an online video with QuickTime Pro (which will run you about $30) by choosing File>Export
and follow the same steps as above. If you choose File>Share, QuickTime will compress your video as an email
attachment. If you created your digital story in Premiere or another program, follow its instructions to export
to the Web.

When you've finished compressing the final file, publish it to your blog or to a destination site such as
Ourmedia. If you want to share it with just a few friends or family members, share it with SpinXpress, a private,
secure peer-to-peer network. Or learn how to promote your videos to a wider audience by reading TechSoup's
