In our #casesmc Twitter chat tomorrow (Oct. 10, 2017) we’re exploring the latest and greatest approaches to cross-platform digital storytelling—from Snapchat and Instagram stories to long-form narratives to video.
Leading the way will be Liz Harter, social media manager at the University of Notre Dame, which has created some pretty amazing work at stories.nd.edu.
Join us at 2 p.m. Eastern on Twitter (hashtag #casesmc) to share ideas and follow along.
