STORYTELLING ARE ABOUT CONNECTION
Stories is basically a connection at a deeper level to show that our lives have meaning. When we connect at a deeper level because of good storytelling, we start to care about a person or a character in a story.
Think about the John Lewis advert for Moz the Monster.
We fall in love with a monster under the bed, and we care.
When I first watched the ad with my son (he’s 2 and I’m 42) we both cried! We both fell in love with the monster and my son wanted to watch this on repeat.
We CARED!
Storytelling is one of the oldest art forms, and we have been telling stories and hearing stories since we were little.
The best stories are full of creativity, interesting words, and twists and familiarities that amuse and entertain.
Storytelling transcends class and culture. They cross continents, and time zones, and leap forward and backward in time.
They deepen our understanding of human beings, and they enable us to connect at a deeper level.
Storytelling begins with one goal in mind… The beginning, the middle and the end.
