Thuringowa digital story workshop

State Library of Queensland staff held a three day digital story workshop at the Thuringowa Central Library from the 16-18 August. Ten participants came from all over Queensland, including Mount Isa, Tully, Ayr, Mackay, Townsville and Charters Towers.

Each person went through the steps of making their very own story – from writing a script, to recording audio, to piecing the video together.

The workshop was facilitated by the John Oxley Library’s Gavin Bannerman and documentary-maker, producer and facilitator Jan Cattoni.  A big thank you to Annette Burns and all the staff at City Libraries Townsville for their hospitality and special thanks to Jan for helping Gavin through his “morning sickness.”
