Recommended Smartphone Apps & Digital Recorders for Storychasing Oral History
Today I’m sharing a presentation at TEDxOU about empowering others as “digital witnesses” to record and preserve oral histories of our families and others in our communities. In my presentation, I briefly discuss apps and digital audio recorders I recommend for storychasers. These iOS apps are linked on the Appolicious list I created recently, “Best iPad Audio Recording Apps (Jan 2013.)”
The two digital audio recorders I recommend are the Sony ICD PX312 – digital voice recorder ($50-$60 new) and the RCA VR5320 1GB Digital Voice Recorder ($30).
This is a screenshot of the “Storychasing apps” I currently have installed on my iPad and use / like. My favorites for digital storytelling are definitely Explain Everything (for narrated slideshows, $3), iMovie ($5) and Pinnacle Studio ($15).
