imagination circles and rocks


It’s hard to beat these 2 videos. As writers want to expand their words from text to video or radio (audio) may switch around whaat you might want to say. The old bards found an easier transition, both my memorizing verse or old texts, and then by using song to tell their story.

Your well crafted script may lose its power when tranlated to audio. Sometimes you must imagine how the audience will hear what you want to say. Words then must create conversation and pictoral scenarios. Yes the audience must be able to immediately visualize what is transpiring.

Video provides more challenges. Will the person be comfortable relating verbal iniformation with image? Can the dialogue hold the viewers attention? Will the message empower the viewer?

Given these elements of text, the writer becomes consumed with the multiple inputs necessary to capture the audience’s imagine in very concise clips. How will you arrange image and audio to enhance your work?

If you are confident about procedures to address these issues, please feel free to comment her and we can start a dialogue.
Feel free to copy and share these thoughts. Also feel free to contact me about stories you would like to sahre.
