Digital exhibits display objects such as text, images, audio, video, and art in an online setting. When creating a narrative through a digital exhibit, much like a physical exhibit, you need to understand how visitors are consuming and understanding the story you are telling.
Online exhibits are usually available to most people around the world who have internet access, while physical exhibits are limited to users who are in the physical area.
Digital exhibits can remain accessible over time, preserve materials that are now living online, and can continually be updated.
Various types of content contribute to the creation of a rich and engaging digital exhibit.
Text

Images

Audio

Video

Interactive Elements

Multimedia content in digital exhibits can elicit a wide range of emotions, which is why we are often drawn to different social media platforms.
Multimedia can foster a deeper understanding of various topics by presenting information in engaging and relatable ways. Additionally, depicting personal events help create a strong emotional connection and understanding between storyteller and audience
