10 Simple Rules of Visual Storytelling | Medium

10 Simple Rules of Visual Storytelling - Visual Stories - Medium
From medium.com - January 14, 2016 10:53 PM

Visual storytelling is simply the way most brands will decide to go in 2016 & beyond, as they try to tell their story to their customers. Why? Pinterest, Instagram, Snapchat, Vine… All these trendy social media sites are based on visuals.


“Facts bore, stories sell” is a common saying. But I will go even further (and probably annoy some master storytellers), by saying: “Stories in text bore, stories told visually engage — and sell”.

Somewhere along the way of this mass information age, many forgot this. They forgot that storytelling is the main ingredient for inspiration.It’s why we cry at the end of Forrest Gump. It’s why we cheer at the end of Rocky (all six of them). It’s also why some of us buy Dunkin’ Donuts over Starbucks (or vice versa)....

I sometimes forget I should be telling a story on my blog. I think every article should be more about you, even if it means cutting down to only posting 3 times a week.
