Digital Storytelling Workshops
The Digital Storytelling Workshop offers intensive training that covers all aspects of multimedia news production from basic storyboarding to hands-on instruction with hardware and software for production of multimedia stories.

- Voice coaching for narration or stand-ups and reporter debriefs
- HTML basics
- Creating interactive charts, graphs and maps to visualize data
