Storytelling
Storytelling is conveying of events in in words, sound or images. It has been shared by human beings for a very long time as a means of recording and representing the world and for the purposes of:
-
Entertainments
-
Education
-
Cultural preservation
-
Instilling moral values
·
Crucial elements of stories and
storytelling include:
-
Plot
-
Characters
-
Narrative
-
Point of view
The word "storytelling" is utilized as
a part of a narrow sense to allude particularly to oral storytelling and in a
free sense to allude to narrative strategy in other media
Plot:
Cause and effect process that develops, cause effect relationship ordering of
events. Doesn’t always work chronologically.
Story:
is chronological but wider. Chronological world of the film.
Narrative:
All the means used to communicate the plot and story. Action happening within
frame, tile, music, effects (editing effects) and not part of the story world.
·
The term “visual storytelling” goes
to film and a host of other media.
·
At times it holds a prescriptive
edge: in a pictorial medium, you should tell your stories visually- rather than, for example, through lengthy dialogue.
·
Show,
don’t tell, in other words.
·
As a concept “visual storytelling” alludes
to the way that producers of moving image products tell the meaning of action
and events through images without recourse to the written or spoken word.
·
This is mainly achieved through two
techniques:
-
The choice of shots;
-
The way those shots are edited
together.
·
Visual storytelling is rarely purely
visual.
·
In film, it needs concepts and music
and noises and much of the time a medium of dialogue to work most fully.
·
But given the power of the image, a
director who invests in “purely visual” passages first and then considers how
his/her images might be reinforced by other inputs, gains huge dividends in the
long run.

and presentation of moving visual and audio media on a material celluloid.

Celluloid comes as a
transparent, flammable plastic made in sheets from camphor and nitrocellulose.
It was utilized in order to make cinematographic movies.

film came in size 16mm. The small negative size implied that movies frequently
seemed grainy.
The entry of a
bigger 35mm negative enhanced picture quality.
