This week I learned that there is power in story, if you need to learn something or memorize something it will be easier to remember if you learn it through a story. You will not remember something as well if you copy it down from a power point or hear it in a lecture. It is easier to learn if you can relate to it through story. I also learned that to have a good digital story there is seven things you have to have. 1. A Point of View 2. A Dramatic Question 3. Emotion 4. Voice 5. A Soundtrack 6. Economy and 7. Pace. I think a good soundtrack is especially important because it can help with a couple of the other elements, like pace, emotion, and voice. You are not going to put in a happy soundtrack if you are talking about something deep or something that is kind of sad. Your voice is important too because if you are to monotone then people are not going to be as interested, because it is not as interesting as if you were to act like it was a conversation that they could possibly relate to. Pace can also help with the interest in your piece, if you are not reading fast enough then they will probably be bored, and if you are too fast your audience might miss important factors. Telling a story to people about something that you are passionate about is a good way to have people realte to you and sometimes people have to hear things to realize what they are doing or that, this is something they can think about themselve and how something you believe in could also be something they believe in, in a different way.
