MULTIMEDIA SIG QUESTIONNAIRE
MULTIMEDIA SIG
Today, more and more talented, enthusiastic and experienced storytellers around the world are increasingly using multimedia to record and pass along their great stories and styles. Many storytellers currently producing CDs, DVDs, radio and TV shows, Web activities, digital storytelling, publications and podcasts want to create a SIG to encourage and support each other's work and activities in these emerging technologies. It's time for a Multimedia SIG! If we decide to apply to NSN for recognition, we need 30 members.
This SIG is open to all who are interested in these new storytelling outlets—from beginners with no technical experience at all to those who have mastered one or more of the technologies. All that is needed is an interest in learning more and helping others/
Please take a moment and let us know about your production activities and your interests. Thanks!
