Visual Story Lab

Nonprofit outreach coordinators, social media managers, and fundraisers will find much useful information in Visual Story Lab (VSL). The project, created by Resource Media and funded by the Brainerd Foundation, the Compton Foundation, and the Seattle Foundation, was sparked after staff at the non-profit realized that policy and consumer arenas were being dominated by corporate communications. They decided to start leveling the playing field by providing the best knowledge, ideas, and experience they could tap through visual storytelling. In a media environment that bombards users with visual messages, VSL aims to seize these opportunities to deliver compelling messages and drive social change. VSL offers three main services on the page linked above: "Reports" on various socially-conscious topics and strategies for visually representing them; a "Toolbox" that contains guides for utilizing social media, making effective infographics, managing photo libraries, and more; and a "Blog" that features real-world accounts from visual storytelling professionals, including reflections on what has and has not worked. Readers looking to learn how to improve and expand the reach of their visual storytelling will find VSL a great place to start.
