If I Did My Own Podcast

Hello Everyone! Another week and another Microblog just for you! This week I have been thinking what would it be like to have my own podcast? What should I podcast about? Two very good questions and I feel like I have some good answers to that. Three ideas that come to mind are fictional stories, a journal of myself and things that I find interesting to talk about, plus my opinions. I feel for me, my creative process is always changing, but that makes it a wonderful thing. At this moment I feel it is best to have a theme and or a structure to the things I podcast about. Honestly, I would just have fun with it and see what I would learn from the experience. If I was podcasting a digital story. I would talk about a fantasy story that's kinda like D&D style. I would narrate the characters to engage more with my followers. If I did a  podcast about my life. I would talk about my work, problems and my health issues. I find it important for people to get to know the real me.

MicroBlog If I Was Going To Do A Video Story

Hello Everybody its been awhile! So this week I was thinking. If I had to do a Video blog or story about myself or something I am interested in. What should I do to stand out and make it good? First, let us say for example I wanted to do a let's play video. The current game I have been playing as of late is called Don't Starve Together. It is basically a crafting and survival game where you just simply survive and not let the world around you kill your character. I have been playing with my girlfriend Blood Queen and I was figuring what would be a good way to help beginners to learn the game. So if I was going to do a video blog about my experiences in Don't Starve Together. This is how I would do it. I would begin each video with my very own logo and a short introduction about my channel lets say about 10 seconds long. (It is important for my viewers to know who I am and get the familiarities of my videos.) I would do a beginners video chronicling how to survive

What Makes a Good Digital Story

What Makes a good digital Story This week I have been tasked with a new question, that touches upon old ideas. I have been asked, what makes a good digital story? I feel the best stories are the ones told where you get to experience them yourself in 1 st  person point of view. There is not one true structure that is perfect in making a good digital story. I have learned there are many different literary elements and structures commonly used, that come close to an adequate formula for digital storytelling. For me personally, I feel the choose your own adventure and narrative stories are the best methods. I have gone in depth about narratives in the last four weeks. I have commented on the two stories She’s a Flight Risk and The Sick Land. These stories are the ones we can relate to the most because it is almost as if we were them. The way our heroes react in the story could make us imagine as the audience, what would we do in these situations. For example, on She’s a Flight Risk

A Summer Story

Hello Everyone This week I played a choose your own adventure type game called  [Text] A Summer Story. It is both a story and an interactive game. A girl named Maya visits her uncle in Japan for a week. She texts him while on the ferry and gets a message from a stranger that has his phone number. It is a boy name Takeshi. He worked for her uncle at the shrine last year. When you get to her uncle's place, the story lets you choose your own actions. You have to play the game 7 times, in order to see the whole story unfold. Eventually, you find out the Takeshi is a ghost accidentally killed by your uncle. Depending on your choices you may or may not find out and you may be killed or killed by her uncle. When you finish one story, you become more interested and want to see what your other choices could have been. You learn more about Maya's Point of View and the Plot that takes center stage in this story. You get her sense of Point of View, as she tells the story in her ow
