Introducing new Creaza content
February 12th, 2011Brand new content launched in Creaza Premium
February 11th, 2011Today we launched a lot of brand new content in Creaza for our Premium users.
Look here:
Creaza has made an agreement with Karl Malbert, a swedish musician, and there are now almost 400 new sounds available in Creaza. We are extremely happy with this and hope all customers enjoy the new possibilities with all the new music and sounds. They are sorted under new categories such as historical, geographical, jingles, action, serious, romantic, party, fun and many more.
Today we launched a new place in the MovieEditor theme “Geographical places”. 35 various movie clips from Marrakech (the “red city”) in Morocco. Marrakech comprises both an old fortified city (the médina) and an adjacent modern city (called Gueliz) for a total population of 1,070,000.
A brand new theme is launched in Cartoonist; “You & Me”. This is a theme where students can work on their social skills and compentence, e-safety, understanding of others feelings, explaining difficult situations, share their thoughts on everyday life and so on. A brand new theme with brand new design and content.
Good luck with creating new movies, digital stories, cartoons, comic strips and much more!

BETT, NOT, ATH, CREATE – SHARE – LISTEN – and You & Me, Marrakech and Music ;-)
February 4th, 2011Creaza had an incredible week in London at BETT 2011. (The world’s leading event for educational technology where education professionals can evaluate and purchase a comprehensive range of ICT products and services.)
A week filled with presentations, networking, branding and meeting customers really confirmed to us that Creaza is being used a lot. We met hundreds of users and a lot of people within the education sector who all showed an interest in Creaza. A common theme is that our product always gives us the possibility to make people smile
Check highlights from BETT here: http://www.bettshow.com/bett11/website/Home.aspx?refer=1
For BETT 2012 we will move on to an even larger stand to meet the growing interest. More to come on this..
Creaza participated at NOT together with Fronter in Utrecht in the Netherlands in the end of January. It was an extraordinary stand with Creaza buttons all over and we met both existing and potential customers. NOT is the largest educational event in the Netherlands.
In the City of Oslo all students and teachers have access to Creaza, and they use it!
Nearly 30 000 people have used Creaza in Oslo since august 2010.
500 teachers from Oslo participated at the conference “Den digitale Osloskolen” Wednesday this week. We received a lot of positive feedback on how their students may use Creaza’s creative tools to create and produce and thereby show their skills and competence.
This week usage of Creaza was at an All Time High both when counting different users and unique products being produced. We like it!
This weekend Creaza will participate at the international CREATE – SHARE – LISTEN conference in Lillehammer, Norway. We are looking forward to meeting Digital Storytellers from all over the world. You can find the conference website here: http://lillehammer2011.wordpress.com/

Creaza – What’s up?
December 14th, 2010Due to a hectic period we have not posted anything on the blog this last month! Sorry!
A lot has been happening and Creaza has travelled a lot to meet, present and train learners, teachers, headmasters and many more. We have visited users and potential users in cities across Europe. It has been a thrill with extraordiarily positive feedback on the product and its potential in the learner`s digital environment.
During the autumn we have also released a lot of new stuff, some examples are:
- Content from Oslo
- Content from Venice
- Content from Florence
- Highlights from Norway
- More content from Rome
- Various movieclips from Palermo and Sicily
- Creaza is available in French – www.creaza.fr
- Creaza is available in Spanish – www.creaza.es
We are working in order to add even more content early this January, and the things we are working on is a completely new Cartoonist theme, and a lot more music and sound. The Cartoonist theme is not yet named, but consists of elements which are possible to use in work with social skills, e-safety, puberty, girls and boys, issues with bullying, you and me and much more…
Users make incredible stuff using Creaza’s tools and content. Some also primarily use their own stuff and only the tools.
Watch this nice video produced by a swedish user with the theme “Water”. He has used different content and functionality in Creaza and combined that with his own sound, music and voice-over.
The same user produced this slideshow from his cartoon on “Ancient Greece”:
We are approaching 2011 and a new year always starts with the BETT Show. Creaza will be there, of course, with our own booth at V53. We will also do a presentation at the Pearson booth at BETT. Visit Pearson on the ground floor, at B40 and C40 on January 12th at 16.00 to 16.45 for a Creaza presentation. More on BETT to come on our Blog.
We hope that you follow Creaza on Facebook as well: www.creaza.com/facebook.
Post your products for others to be inspired
Enjoy December
