Another Use for Digital Storytelling

My father passed away unexpectedly in January. As a result, I received a photo album full of pictures, many from days before I was born or when I was very young. My mother passed when I was only 21, so there are photos from the early days of those, as well.

I have been scanning these photos, a little at a time, and I was just going to burn them to a disc for each of the kids, my sister's kids, and my brother's. But now I'm thinking I should use photo story and narrate some of them with family history that I do know.

My nana is 83, and I would love to sit down with her and record family history and lay that audio under some of the photos as well. This will preserve her voice, her memories, and the photos for generations to come.

  1. It is great that you are spending time to digitize your family photos and probably turn them into some great digital stories!
