The Digital Scholarship Fellows, working with Eric Williams-Bergen and Nicole Roche, learned how to film a professional interview in a workshop this spring.

This year marked an expansion of the program from 10-12 students per year to now 20. The scholars met in two different cohorts to help maintain the smaller workshop size and hands-on nature of the workshops.

Workshops included Web Design, Digital Photography and Editing, Audio Recording and Editing, Digital Storytelling with Film, Video Editing, and many more. Each workshop this year included a “Generative A.I. Moment” that featured a close look at the latest A.I.-powered tools related to that day’s workshop.
