The Importance of Interpersonal Trust

[Virtual Team Builder Blog]

Last week, we discussed the crucial matter of trust within a virtual environment. In particular, we explored swift trust, a phenomenon that takes places when a group of diverse individuals come to quickly trust one another because they are all working toward a common goal. We saw that swift trust tends to develop in a virtual environment where team members do not have the opportunity to build trust in a more traditional manner. We also mentioned that though swift trust is important, it is a temporary phenomenon that holds a team together until a stronger, more trusting bond can form. This week, we’ll explore exactly how virtual team members can transform their temporary bonds of trust into deeper, longer lasting, and more effective relationships. Specifically, we’ll examine ways to develop interpersonal trust.

Transmedia Storytelling Cookbook: from Digital to a Multiplatform Approach | Zemanta

Transmedia Storytelling Cookbook: from Digital to a Multiplatform Approach | Zemanta | Digital-News on Scoop.it today | Scoop.it

Sara Bozanic:  "Marketers and designers are finally moving into a new era – the era of transmedia. The previous era, which was characterized by a huge platform obsession approach, is over. But what does it all mean?"

 

...Transmedia is a storytelling technique, which happens across multiple media platforms, but in a platform appropriate way.

 

Content is spread across several media simultaneously. It’s not just about digital media, but also a combination of several traditional channels or a combination of both, such as the environment, radio, TV, web, mobile, etc.

 

3 Main Phases of Development
But what does this mean in practice? We can divide transmedia development process in 3 main phases: concept development, distribution and growth. Each phase is characterized by emotional investment, social mechanics, participation and care....

 

[Here's a useful overview of Transmedia storytelling ~ Jeff]

Kshitija's curator insight, December 28, 2012 7:21 AM

Thought that movies can be made only with fancy video software? Think again! This video here shows how you can make short movies using only graphics, clipart, animations and other PowerPoint elements. 


The video focusses on digital storybooks, but this technique is quite useful to make short movies even for a business presentation. You could even pick up an animated PowerPoint presentation tool and use that as the basis of for your short 'animated' movie. Something like this doesn't take too much of your time and adding a story/movie to your presentation will add more appeal and pizzazz to your slides!
