Freebie: ELH Challenge #322 photo collage demo
Managing Pain - Jonathan's Story is a demo in response to Articulate’s E-Learning Heroes Challenge #322: Creating Visual Stories with Interactive Photo Collages. Blog post: https://tracycarroll.net/managing-pain/
Freebie: the story file is attached for download.
Cool Tool - To create the comic book effect with the images I used, I employed the use of a tool new to me: Colorcinch. This online photo editor & cartoonizer is easy to use, and free! There are more advanced versions of the application that require a paid subscription, but for this demo I went with the free version. Below is a quick example that shows how the free version of the tool can quickly create cartoon versions of a photo. (The image below is not shown in the demo.)
*UPDATE: 5.2.23 - I created this demo a couple of years ago. At that time, a "Basic" or free version of this tool was available. The current pricing information can be found here: https://www.cartoonize.net/pricing/

Just tried to do it myself, and it appears that all of the "cartoonizer" effects are now behind a paywall. 😫
