Artists are all storytellers, no
Artists are all storytellers, no matter what medium or field. But, telling a story isn't just about expression – it's about communication. Enhancing these skills can impact how effective our art can convey the story we want to tell.
In this video, I share 10 ways to help improve visual storytelling skills through examples and personal experiences. Since the dawn of existence, humans have been communicating, through stories, reports, performances, often re-telling old stories to new audiences.
But, in looking at our own artwork, today, how can we improve our approach to communicate our message more quickly and effectively, in a vibrant visual representation that will easy to translate by viewers?
Here are just 10 Ways to Improve Your Visual Storytelling:
1. ORIGINALITY: Even re-telling an old story can be original.
2. IDENTIFY YOUR AUDIENCE: Know who we're telling our story to.
3. MAKE IT PERSONAL: Knowing the truth behind a story makes it real.
4. ENJOY YOURSELF: When our art becomes a chore, it will show in the work and in the story.
5. MAKE IT ATTAINABLE: Having access to fresh ideas, quality materials, and the precious time to work is vital creating good artwork.
6. KEEP IT SIMPLE: It's best to keep things simple than overcomplicate with conflicting ideas, directions, or intentions.
7. A STORY IN ONE TAKE: The most memorable works of art tell at least one powerful story. Sometimes more.
8. COHERENCE & CONTINUITY: The flow from piece to piece, by the same hand.
9. THE DEVIL IS IN THE DETAILS: Too many details can generate unexpected problems. ("God is in the Details" suggests adding appropriate detail to elevate a piece of art without problems).
10. DONE IS GOOD: Knowing when a piece is finished prevents us from overworking it and possibly ruining it.
