St. George Utah FamilySearch Library/Story Recording Booths

== Everyone has a story; let us help you record your story! ==

The St George FamilySearch Center has three story recording booths – two are single and one will accommodate a family. After logging in to the ipad tool, you dock the ipad on the recording booth docking station and a prepared video narrator will you begin to walk you through how to record your story.

Be Interviewed a.	When you select the “Be Interviewed” option, the narrator will ask you a series of questions about your life, your family memories, and people you know. You simply answer these questions. Your responses and a video of you answering the questions is prepared and a link is sent to you. 2.	Share an image a.	Talking about a photograph or family picture is a great way to get started with a story. Using this experience, you will be asked to send a picture to the interview via text messaging. Everyone in the group can talk about the picture and share a story that comes to mind. Your story and a video of you sharing these memories will be sent to you as a link in an e-mail. 3.	Pick a Story Idea a.	If you don’t know where to begin, this is a great option to select. Several story ideas – vacations, family sayings, marriage, etc. – are offered as suggested story topics.
