Writing: Tell Me A Story 2023

Objective: In this lesson, I can: • Define and apply advanced storytelling techniques.

Once you’ve mastered the techniques of storytelling from the previous lessons, you are ready to employ advanced storytelling techniques to enhance the appeal of your story. These techniques are found both in the words of excellent writers and in the images that you have grown accustomed to viewing in a good movie or TV show. Good storytelling is good storytelling across all media. As a result, you can adapt techniques from poetry, song lyrics and cinema, as well as from other various forms of writing to improve yearbook stories. WRITE TIGHT WITHOUT COMPROMISING CONTENT Famous song lyrics, such as “Eleanor Rigby,” and “Sittin’ by the Dock of the Bay” are wonderful examples of writing tight to convey a message. To accomplish this, you should work to remove redundancy.
