Jaidah Dickson - Change

Change is a short fictional story made to present for a Digital Storytelling course. It is read primarily through the eyes of a character reflecting upon a significant event in their childhood. The purpose of this tale is to introduce and provide some background on the main protagonist of a larger story I hope to one day share.

Sean Fraizer - Black Coffee

I started with the song and the idea of two people having a cup of coffee together, or not. The idea of how to present this in a digital story then came the idea of a website. Then the idea of of the Jim Carrey website came to mind,and it not working well because it was not apparent how to use it. The website has now been taken down, and I thought I could make it better in this project.

Rachel Gellinger - The Bunny

This story tells the tale of how Alina and Ylva, two demon hunters, got started in their profession. These two characters are actually some of my more recent creations, having only been thought of just a few months ago - very young, compared to my oldest characters, which are around 3 years old. After coming up with the original sketches for these two, I quickly became very interested in thinking up their backstory - who they are, what they did, and what their world was like, and this project was the perfect opportunity to do so. It was very fun to see where this project took me and my characters - I got to see my them go through several different stages in their development, and while I’m not sure I can say they’re quite finished yet, I’m still very happy with how this story turned out!

Jewel Harrington - Indifference

This project is about the environment. I feel that it’s important to remember that there is no other Earth to go to, if we destroy this one. I’m unconcerned about myself, as I do not, and will not have children. I am very concerned that people will be thrown into the Dark Ages, soon. The reliance on fossil fuels, should allow an understanding that they will eventually run out. Most likely, during my lifetime. I believe that if people are concerned about their friends, and their family, then they might want to think about re-salvaging the planet. People must understand that the governments of the world are not doing enough. All of the life on Earth, is not independent from the rest of all other life. All of species of life, is dependent on others. What we do to the Earth, we do to ourselves.

Julli Krishcko - Borsht : The soup of the soviets

This website was created to give insight to the visitor about a classic & historic Soviet dish. It also has the potential to spark the interest of the visitor to further investigate the Ukrainian and Russian cultures and cuisines, and furthermore, act out in this interest and cook these dishes. I hope it will encourage the visitor to engage with this website and the topic and seek out opportunities to discover more about it.

Lindsey Norberg - Lost in VanWA

Recently, there was a long-term care facility called Lincoln Place built in Clark County where my mother now lives full-time. This has been one of the best things that had happened since her diagnosis of Schizophrenia. This experience has motivated me to speak publically about mental illness and homelessness in Clark County to make these same kinds of services more accessible to others. That is why I created Lost in VanWA a one-stop-shop for all community resources in Clark County.

Tamra Norris - Tale of Three Kingdoms

This project uses Facebook posts to tell a fantasy story. The purpose of this is to bring to life the stories created by my brothers and I, as well as to demonstrate the storytelling capabilities of a minimalist medium, as well as dialog-only, character focused storytelling methodology.

Yun Joo Oh - The Mermaids of Jeju Island

Have you ever heard the story of mermaids living on beautiful Jeju Island, off the coast of Korea? The mermaids living on Jeju Island are actually Haenyeo, or Korean female divers. This website contains their story on the timeline. Further, I hope that my digital storytelling website plays a role in promoting ‘Culture of Haenyeo' to more people. Therefore, it eventually helps to add it to the UNESCO List of Intangible Cultural Heritage.

Christopher Pien - Keepsake Box

Keepsake box is a small interactive project built in Unity 5. In Keepsake Box, the player is presented with a cardboard box full of different objects. Each of these can be clicked on and then inspected. Additionally, a small snippet of text will appear below the object giving some context to either what the object is of how it got there. Instead of relying on explicit storytelling, the project requires interaction from the viewer who must put together all of the pieces within the box to form a cohesive story for their collection.

Vanessa Rhodes - Deep Water

This webpage was created for sharing my seven year-old Deep-Water poem. I went through a life altering experience in the military and I wanted people to understand that depression gets worse when you are isolated from people who care about you. In the help section, I included information about suicidal thoughts and steps to get safe.

David Schneider - Sight Unseen

Jeremy Testerman - Digital Canvas

The story behind Digital Canvas is one that we have all experienced at one time or another, the reliance of plan b, or plan c even. I had the idea of doing something similar to this but on a much grander scale but plans fell through and I had to go on to other options. I wanted to make somewhat of a satirical sense of always having backup plans for when other plans don’t follow through and hence digital canvas was made but unfortunately even a plans plan don’t work out and things change.

Peter Thompson - Lunastro

This work is what would be considered a "visual novel" in the gaming industry. As an aspiring game designer I wanted to try my hand at creating a game. While I've played many games over the years I had yet to take the opportunity to sit down and create one of my own. Lunastro became the resulting product of my efforts.

Works Best in Chrome.

Brandon Van Sluis - Creeper

My end goal was to create a horror story that effectively disturbed and/or unsettled my audience. Invoking fear is an art form, one which I aimed to perfect with this project. My earlier outlines called for a focus on the audio element of storytelling. However, as the creative process continued, I made the decision to use a hybrid of fear-inducing audio and still photography to tell my story. At its core this is a ghost story. With inspiring elements from slenderman and the X-Files, I utilized powerpoint to create a slideshow video documenting my encounters with a ghostly figure that began showing up in the background of my photography. To portray this work of fiction, I staged scenes with my friends as actors. Then, visualizing where I wanted the ghost to appear, I directed the positioning of the actor playing the ghost so as to be the most scary

McKenzie Wells - Stellenet

Stellenet is an exploration of a different world, where the Internet continues through dedicated individuals in space. It connects humans from different parts of the galaxy, with telecommunication and physically. Living in such a delicate time in human history has some of us wondering how long we can keep up our consumer habits and lack of personal research.
