Putting the 'Story' into Storytelling
Everyone loves a good story. It’s built into our DNA. From cave paintings to hieroglyphics, it’s a vital tool for us as humans to pass on information, lessons, etc. to others. So why does a vast amount of digital content overlook the basic rules of effective storytelling? Graham will examine various ways of applying simple storytelling techniques and how this approach taps into the genetic makeup of human attention spans.
