  What makes a story a story?

  APD Digital Story Telling

  • at makes a story a story?
  • Hardly anybody ever narrates the eve
  • We believe all stories are told to make a point
  • describing a desire
  • the action that desire led us to perform
  • what realization came about as a result of our experiencing the events of our actions in relationship to our original desire
  • point of view
  • the points of stories, what somebody realized is the actual result, versus the desired effect, of a planned action.
  • another way of expressing the point of the story is the central premise.
  • In well-crafted stories, the point may be a little less apparent than the moral of a fairy tale, and it might require some thought, but if the story touched you, chances are you can define some central points or the transformative realizations the author intended.
  • little less apparent than the moral of a fairy tale
  • We believe all stories are personal
  • For most storytellers, couching the story in the first-person point of view, either throughout the story or as a frame around the story, is an invitation to hearing the story in a more personal context.
