Visual Storytelling and Sensory Experience

Enriched with sensory experience, visual storytelling goes beyond language; it is felt deeply and thoughtfully in an emotionally and cognitively way. It blends imagery, sound, texture and space and makes it immersive narratives that provide the empathy, this memory and also understanding. Sensory storytelling is being used to connect people on cinema, VR, education, journalism, branding, advocacy… AI and interactive media allow a more personal experience in that it makes it available to a wider audience while strewing ethical issues. It helps with understanding and creativity in classrooms and urgency and depth in media. Visual storytelling is a powerful common language across tradition and technologies still given to us to communicate, to heal, to learn and to transform.
