Friday is the final presentation of digital story, which we prepare for the whole quarter. I think the procedure was pretty complex, including blogging, searching pictures and music, polishing our digital story, recording our story and making DST video. Things seemed confusing when I set about the work of digital story. First, I could not determine the topic which I should choose for digital story. Considering it for a long time, I thought I could write something about my hometown, the place which I was quite familiar with and began to write an outline of the story. Then I started writing the story with my explicit memory of my hometown, which was not a hard work. However, it came to be tough when I started to work on my digital story recording. I could not read it fluently and had to rerecord it by making an new appointment, which made me tired. The most interesting part was making a video. Before I mad the DST, I had found many nice pictures and a piece of music which I think was fit for my story. From my point of view, I think there are a lot of similarity between writing an academic essay and a digital story. For instance, we should credit others’ idea and the source. Substantially speaking, citing the sentence which is adapted from another article and using the pictures downloaded from internet are the same things in the process of protecting intellectual property and being exempting from punishment of violating of academic conduct. And the difference is that in digital story, we specifically tolk about our life and experience, but in academic essay, we should be objective and neutral.
We should essentially credit the pictures and the music in the process of making DST. Every thing from others should be cited in order to protect intellectual property, even though it comes from the communal resources such as internet. We should fulfill our responsibility by give the credit to others who did the original job.
