About the storytellers

Highland Lives participants are people just like you. Some of them own video cameras and computers but few had ever tried to record more than their family life. With training from BBC Scotland and help to decide what story to tell, they got ready for "Action!"

Highland Lives equipment

The video and audio kits that people used are still there in the six locations, if you want to have a go at telling a story.

In fact, some of the centres have already set up similar community schemes to record local stories and give adults and young people chances to use technology in new ways.
