THINK ABOUT

We all narrated how stories are conveyed through songs

Some of us also mentioned some personal communication/socialization.

Also, some textbook reading involving stories as an example in order to help us learn.

We watched TV shows/ movies with interesting and amusing narratives to become inspired and be introduced to a new world.

Emily talked about ads and commercials and how they influence us to buy their product.

 

THINK BEYOND WORDS

We think that both can be very powerful in their own ways. Written stories can be more powerful by being more descriptive. In videos you can sense emotion and see how the individual feels about the subject.

COMPARE NARRATIVES

Music and magazines.

Both forms of mediums can force people to think about certain situations.

Stories can be told through music that can affect people on emotional levels more than the average magazine.

In magazines, stories can be told with more literary sense, unlike songs, which have more metaphors, similes and rhythm.
