25 Storytelling Tips
Make it your best story by using these tips!
WHAT TO DO
Choose a story idea. Ask yourself these questions:
Dig your memories for small moments you wish were filmed or captured
Do you recall an episode from your life that is funny in hindsight but wasn’t so funny at the time?
Have you pursued something to the bitter end or given up on a goal?
Are you inexplicably drawn to a person, place, or thing?
Listen to some storytellers. Then build your story.
A story must have a beginning, middle, and end
WHAT NOT TO DO
Do not use profanity, sexual inuendo, racial slurs, hate speech.
Do not “explain” another culture or way of life that is not your own.
Do not make another person’s story your story. Tell your own.
