FOCUS ON LISTENING
The hardest part of a story project is the "listening" side: who listens and why? Memria's tools are designed to facilitate the biggest challenge for all storytelling projects -- listening -- by providing tools and templates to make stories more listener-friendly, including maps, timelines, images, and data visualization.
HOW MEMRIA WORKS
MEMRIA uses the power of personal stories to help our partners further their missions and to strengthen community engagement. Our tools allow clients to easily collect, manage, and share first-person narratives and testimonials from people in their own voices.REQUEST AND RECORD
Clients create a Project and invite participants via email invite, social media, or a direct link, such as a "Tell Your Story" button on their website. Participants (called Storytellers) record audio or write, preview, and submit their story and, if they choose, upload relevant photographs. Participants can choose to not display their name.
CURATE AND ANALYZE
Clients review stories and testimonials, and use dashboard tools to create transcripts, analyze materials, edit audio, create podcasts and compilations, and create archives. If they choose to share the stories, they can publish them on a "public stories" page. Stories can be archived.
SHARE AND DISTRIBUTE
Post stories directly to Facebook and Twitter or use the story URL in an email newsletter. A "mini player" can be embedded into other content such as a blog post or website, or download audio clips and compile them into a podcast. Create distributable materials for external or internal audiences.
