Thrilling storytelling for social media

Stories are one of the most popular, engaging, and stable formats across social media, including Instagram, Facebook, and more. They can also be tricky: engagement and performance require some expertise. This workshop will help you develop better stories by turning the mysterious creative process into a sequence of understandable and reproducible steps. Moreover, it will help you harness the stories’ power for the benefit of your city and its communities.

In our event workshop you will:
> gain the skills, essential to create the stories’ content, including basic technical skills, storyboarding, and repackaging,
> get the insights on the Instagram algorithm to become much more visible to your urban community,

> become capable of creating engaging, interactive stories.

You and your stories are at the very center of the event's Live Session. You will practice your storyboard creation skills within a small group and develop your own new stories' format(s), capitalizing on the content exchange and collaborations with the participants from other cities.
Join our workshop to level up your storytelling skills.
