Digital story telling training was held in Sarajevo from September 4th to 11th, attended by 12 participants from several Balkans countries and from Italy. The event was organized by OneWorld SEE in cooperation with the Italian embassy in Sarajevo. The training was conducted by Sally-Jean Shackleton, executive director of the feminist organization Women’s Net in the South African Republic, whose current passion is digital story telling, the strengthening of voices and the use of information and communication technologies as a tool for making changes in society.

The topic of the training was “Me and ICT”, but in the process, other digital stories with different topics were created as well. However, they all had in common the personal attitude towards the topic and the sincere approach. This is actually characteristic for digital stories and makes them different from the remaining forms of expression with the assistance of various technologies.
Digital story telling actually enables people without much technical knowledge to share important stories from their lives, using modest technological resources. The product is often a short film containing a narrative part, accompanied by photographs and music.

The training was comprised by lectures for digital story telling, as a form and process in which the participants should feel the transformation, then the personal stories in written form were prepared, the necessary material was procured, the planned pictures were graphically processed and the audio part of the stories was recorded and processed and at the end all of this was packed in a single video clip with a duration of 2-5 minutes. By the end of the training, every participant had made a digital story. The goal of the training was to train the participants for holding trainings on digital story telling. Therefore, during the last days, the training was focused on building a network that would work on digital story telling in its region.

Two representatives of the Metamorphosis Foundation from Macedonia attended the training: Irina Shumadieva and Elena Ignatova.
