Storytelling and Beyond: Sharing stories across the Internet and other media

By Nate Mains, MTN

November 29, 2010

At the 2010 Fall Media Forum, Spoken word artist and storyteller Tish Jones combines storytelling and performance to explore ways to use new media tools to engage individuals and communities in telling their own stories.

Miss the forum? Don't worry -- you can watch Nancy Donoval tell her National Story Sam-winning story here, thanks to video coverage provided by Nate Mains of Minneapolis Television Network.

Mains also documented:

Social media aficionado and Placeblogger founder Lisa Williams presenting "A guided tour of the new lands beyond narrative"
Photographer Wing Young Huie, known for his public art projects on Lake Street and University Avenue, talking about his art and career in "Photographing the cultural landscape"
Daily Planet arts editor and inveterate blogger Jay Gabler discussing the ins and outs of "Telling your story through blogs"
Spoken word artist, storyteller and teacher Tish Jones talking about "Sharing stories across the Internet and other media"
Videographers Chuck Olsen and Allison Herrera, of the TPT weekly news series Minnesota Original, teaching the crowd about "Digital video."
