Audio-visual documentation method for digital storytelling for a Multimedia Art Project

In this paper, we describe an interactive multimedia art project, namely FaceGrid, using mosaic photography art concept for digital storytelling. Inspired by mosaic photography and a montage concept, FaceGrid was produced by using many small image tiles that were woven and stitched together to form the pixel art design pattern. FaceGrid documents the different ways of living and lifestyles of ordinary folks in a multi-cultural and diverse ethnic society in Malaysia. We use audio-visual documentation methods (photography and film-documentary techniques) to record, capture and archive the different facets of lives and user stories by ordinary people. We then transform those slices of life via digital storytelling technique into an interactive multimedia art project
