TechSoup's 2014 Storymakers digital storytelling contest and event series is over. Our webinars live on and provide education on how to get your story noticed, super-short storytelling and what's needed for a stand-out story.
In keeping with our goal to help nonprofits, libraries, and social benefit organizations learn how to tell more compelling and more meaningful stories, we encourage you to go explore our learning resources.
Kimberly Bryant from Black Girls CODE and Bailey Rosser from YouTube shared how to make sure your story stands out and is noticed! Kimberly Bryant and Black Girls Code was selected by Business Insider in 2013 on its list of BusinessInsider.com's list of "The 25 Most Influential African-Americans in Technology". Bailey Rosser is an audience development strategist at YouTube, who writes the YouTube Creator Playbook to help advise video creators on how to improve their reach and impact across YouTube.
Storymakers - Get Your Story Noticed! highlights different channels and tools to help promote your organization's story for good.
Not only will you hear from story experts across organizations, we'll also have a session dedicated exclusively to telling stories from a library - whether it's the library's own story or the stories from its community and patrons.
In our Storymakers: Tell Your Library's Story webinar, Oakland Public Library's Sharon McKellar and TechSoup's Ale Bezdikian shared tips on telling and collecting great stories from your library.
Throughout the whole campaign, follow the #Storymakers2014 hashtag on Twitter.
