Descriptions

Brief DescriptionA collection of user generated stories about growing up in Australia and the hopes and dreams of Australian youth, told through the use of multimedia tools. Contributors have combined material from their own personal archives of audio visual material (photographs, video footage, text, music and sound) to produce a 3-4 minute personal story which they have then narrated. Over 20 short films have been created since 1993 as part of the Digital Storytelling program.
