iPad Apps for Digital Storytelling

Post date: Aug 20, 2014 5:46:28 AM

I want to share a couple of iPhone/iPad resources that you can use to easily make videos. In my former life as a tech teacher and now as a homeschooling father/video entrepreneur, I place a high value on digital storytelling apps. My favorites are: Puppet Pals (now with version 2) and Storyrobe.

Puppet Pals allows you to record virtual puppet shows from animatable characters while recording your voice. If you upgrade, you can use pictures you take yourself, cut new characters out of those pictures, and use them as puppets. Example Version 2 allows for mouth, arm, and leg movement.

Storyrobe allows you to take any pictures and create a narrated slideshow. Example

These apps have educational value and can be leveraged to record family memories as well.
