Scenario Storytelling, placing yourself or an imagined character somewhere in the future, where they are coping with likely new and complex situations, has been an important part of life planning, and organizational planning for decades.
Join Joe Lambert on a unique six week workshop to have you create stories about the future. Participants will use a mix of AI image, video and audio generating tools and Wevideo editing software.
Based on the Postcards from the Future project of the 2024 100 Year Project at Arizona State University and the Ed Tech Scenario Stories from the 2025 conference at UT San Antonio, Lambert will walk participants through imagining, scripting, designing and producing a 2 - 4 minute story that imagines an issue, idea, or context that informs your thoughts about what is in store for the world in the years to come.
This workshop requires attendance at six online sessions on consecutive Wednesdays, from August 20th through September 24, 2025. Each session is two hours and begins at 10am Pacific Time/ 1pm Eastern Time.
