For my digital story I want to illustrate the story of someone that fails to receive a job because of what they have put on the internet. I think this is relative because it has to do with a very prevalent problem and is because of digital media, mainly social media. I want to do this through either several different stills, a movie, or a comic. I am not yet sure which one to do yet, but I want to somehow use visuals to show my story. My story will begin with a person at a party three years before the interview. There they will drink too much and put pictures of themselves doing illegal activities on the internet. Then we will fast forward to the present three years later, where the person will be sitting in a waiting room before going to the interview of their dream job. Then I will show the boss of the company doing a quick google search before the interview and finding the picture. They will then conduct the interview and he will not get the job. I have experience in editing film, but I have never really made a story, filmed, and edited it all together. I may have to use still pictures to form a somewhat live comic book which I have never done, but think would be extremely interesting to try.
