My favorite part of the class is having a creative output, and seeing the community grow around the broadcast.I have created some entertaining videos that people really enjoyed. Those included Night of the Trashcans, Several Broadcasts, and an inspirational video. I have also written some articles for the Website.

My favorite part of the Post is being able to both work and have fun at the same time. My peers are so much fun to work with, and the 8th graders have so much experience too, the perfect combination for a class.One thing I'm proud of is the first broadcast we did. I was one of the hosts for the first broadcast of the year, and for my first time working on it, I think I did pretty good.

My favorite part of Advanced Digital Storytelling is when we get to go out and interview students and staff. That is my favorite part because I get to see what responses we get . I have always loved using cameras and recording people.My first solo project for the class was my Reflections video. It took a lot of time and effort, but it turned out pretty well in my opinion.

I like joining a group and just planning and producing the next broadcast. It is my favorite part of the class because I get to use my creativity on things I am proud of sharing with others.I am particularly proud of the Monarch Post's Halloween special I helped create for Moore Middle School.

What is Advanced Digital Storytelling?

The Advanced Digital Storytelling class is an elective at Moore Middle School. Students learn about journalism, film production, graphic design, and project management by making weekly broadcasts and helping to maintain a student website. The students work in groups to plan, script, film, edit, and publish the broadcast over a three or four week period. They will also plan and create short entertaining or informative videos.

This elective is similar to yearbook and ASB, as students are creating a product for other students to enjoy. It is open to seventh and eighth graders, and can be repeated both years.
