Five steps to making a Digital Family Story
This page is designed to help you select the tools for your project. Just like any craftsman, you need a vision of your final product before you can choose the proper tools for the project.
1. Collection: A collection contains the artifacts created in the past and saved over time. Collections may be newly started or passed on from earlier generations.
2. Consideration: First you must consider some issues before you can determine which tools to use for your project.
3. Digitization: Digitization is the process of converting all the artifacts into a computer readable format.
4. Production: Production is the process of assembling the artifacts and elements and presenting your family story.
5. Publication: The media you choose for publication will determine who can view your story.
