This course explores the practice of digital storytelling with the creative reuse of archival audiovisual materials. Students will write a media autobiography about their relationship to media throughout their lives (film, TV, radio, the internet, cell phones, video games, and more). One entry will be turned into a final media project - either a short documentary film, video essay, podcast, or digital exhibit - utilizing archival footage from select sources.
