Disclosed is a method and system for enabling storytelling on a computing device. A processor analyzes a set of media items associated with a user, where each media item has associated metadata. The processor identifies, based on analysis of the associated metadata, one or more related characteristics among the media items in the set to form a cluster of media items associated with an event. The processor selects, based on analysis of the media items in the cluster, a plurality of templates from a template database, where each template is configured to represent a moment in the event. The processor edits selected media items in the cluster to fit into the selected templates. The processor creates a mixed-media module including the plurality of templates organized into a desired sequence for the selected templates.
