How does
it work?
Each workshop begins with storytelling. Exploring ways of telling
stories is an exciting and engaging process. Up to ten people in each
workshop participate in games to discover words and how to put them into
a script. Inside your collection of photos and memorabilia are pictures
that hold fascinating stories. Put the pictures and script together in
a laptop computer with editing software and you have a film.
Where
can I watch these films?
The BBC has created the world's biggest archive of digital stories.
Many of the films made in BBC workshops are on this website, and BBC Capture
Wales has many more. You will also see them on BBC Television. Your Stories
on BBCi features two new digital stories each day. These short films have
also been used alongside BBC2's Who Do You Think You Are? and in the Taking
Care and VE Day anniversary programmes.
