Writerslink writer's workshop at Gilgandra Library: Retool Remix with David Reiter

Think outside the text box! This is a workshop that gives you the skills to compose books which include multimedia elements (audio, video, animation, interactivity) as well as words. Create works for podcasts, blogs or CD/DVD distribution. Experience a hands-on workshop with demos and exercises, brainstorm your own projects, remix them from straight text into multimedia presentations!
The workshop is aimed at artists, community members, historians, writers and anyone who is interested in integrating rich media into their work. The workshop facilitator is Dr David Reiter, an award-winning poet and writer of fiction, and Director of Interactive Publishing, a print and digital publisher based in Brisbane. This workshop follows from Selling that Book conducted at Macquarie Regional Library in 2007. Come and network with colleagues in a fun and comfortable workshop environment! Only $25 per person! This includes all refreshments. Places limited – book now!

One of Gilgandra Shire Library's youthful customers told me that David Reiter's book "The Greenhouse Effect" was the best book she'd ever read. Recommendations don't come any higher than that. Dr Reiter says that digital media empowers creators to publish, using the internet as a channel for sales. Come along to the Library on Wednesday 3 December and learn how to make digital media work for you.
