The Seven Elements of Digital Storytelling
The Center for Digital Storytelling (CDS) in Berkeley, California is known for developing and disseminating the Seven Elements of Digital Storytelling, which are often cited as a useful starting point as you begin working with digital stories.
- Point of View - What is the main point of the story and what is the perspective of the author?
- A Dramatic Question - A key question that keeps the viewer's attention and will be answered by the end of the story.
- Emotional Content - Serious issues that come alive in a personal and powerful way and connects the story to the audience.
- The Gift of Your Voice - A way to personalize the story to help the audience understand the context.
- The Power of the Soundtrack - Music or other sounds that support and embellish the storyline.
- Economy - Using just enough content to tell the story without overloading the viewer.
- Pacing - The rhythm of the story and how slowly or quickly it progresses.
