The easy parts of doing teamwork.

Since there is a wealth of ideas in group work, it is beneficial for digital storytelling in terms of innovation and diversity. The group thinks together while working together. It becomes easier to come up with ideas. When team members focus on their own part in line with their own skills, the quality of the resulting project increases. For example, some group members may be better at writing scripts, while others may be better

at identifying characters. This makes the division of labor easier. Or some group members may be good at voice-over while others may be better at finding and combining pictures. It also adds value to the project if, when dividing up tasks, each person is specialized in his or her own area of expertise. Distributing work with the group can also shorten the production time of the project.

The difficulties of teamwork.

One of the common problems about teamwork challenges in digital storytelling can be said to be the inability to agree on the same idea. Sometimes there can be a conflict of ideas within the group. Another problem is that team members are not available at the same time. In this case, it can be said that the time management part is necessary. Conflict of ideas and time incompatibility can lead to incompatibility and loss of time within the team. Another problem is the lack of sense of duty among team members. Each team member should have a good sense of duty. In addition, the group leader needs to be decisive in some conflicts of opinion, the group leader needs to lead the group well in indecisive situations and intra-group discussions.
