Digital storytelling is creating short movies, typically with an emotional component, using computer tools to narrate a story from one's life or creative imagination. It combines narrative with digital media like images, sound, and video. A digital story is typically under 8 minutes and focuses on a topic, point of view, or moral lesson. Common tools for creating digital stories include iMovie, Windows Movie Maker, and Photo Story 3, which allow editing video, images, and audio to tell a story.
