Story telling – from words to images. Group exercise to train the participants to think into images
A short story was told to the participants. They were invited to
visualize the story and identify the images that describe the action. After the images were establish in a common
agreement, they identified the characters, decor, props that contribute in the
story. After everyone agreed on the particular images that could retell the
story, they took the photos in the narrative order, each participant choosing
one image. The images were viewed together on the projector, commented so that
the ladies choose only the ones that gave sense to the story. After they agreed
on the final images, a person that didn't know the story was invited to watch
and comment so that the ladies could hear the feed-back and decide by
themselves if indeed a story can be told in images, the success of their work
and what, why and how they would change certain elements or images in order for
the story to be understood exactly how it is.
It is morning. She wakes up
suddenly. It is 7 o’clock. She looks around but doesn't recognize where she is.
She looks under her pillow and find a notebook and a pen. Holds the notebook
and reads. She smiles. Takes the pen and writes: 3 February 2015. She puts her
notebook in the bag. Leaves outside in the morning light.
