Our project for Week 1 was to create a personal digital photo story. I was extremely nervous about this project, because I generally do not like expressing myself openly. In addition, I struggle to put my thoughts in writing. I read the Digital Storybook Cookbook to help get me started. Many of the suggestions seemed to be geared towards personal things or events. I felt like it was to be something emotionally gripping... something, I'm generally not interested in doing. I did have a recent event that I considered doing which was the recent loss of a family member. But after viewing photographs of my nephew, it was emotionally difficult to try to narrate a story. After days of pondering, I decided to do a more positive digital story on thanking those who have supported me during the difficult times. This digital story was more comforting and helped me to reflect on the influences that certain people have had in my life.
