The aim of the teaching is to provide students with the basics to inform, tell, describe facts and events on social platforms and websites.
The teaching aims to provide students with a general understanding of some of the most complex and problematic, and at the same time also the most widespread, procedures through which multiple practices of communication in the hyper-iconic, digital and social era unfold.
Social media management and storytelling exercises will be carried out during the course

Programme
The Digital Storytelling Lab aims to explore the main forms of storytelling within the contemporary digital ecosystem, analyzing languages, platforms, and narrative formats related to new media. Through both theoretical and practical approaches, students will be guided in the creation of content for the web, social networks, and multimedia environments, developing skills in creative writing, audiovisual communication, and transmedia storytelling. Particular attention will be given to the evolution of digital languages, the relationship between text, images, and interactivity, as well as the impact of platforms on content production and consumption. The lab will also encourage collaborative activities and experimental projects aimed at the development of innovative narrative products.Core Documentation
