[Visual] Storytelling for NbS

We tell stories to communicate ideas, values, histories, beliefs, and imagined futures. Well-crafted stories are good at sparking conversation. Stories can take many forms, depending on the source material and the audience. Scientists tell stories in the form of reports and journal articles. Comics tell stories in the form of pictures, text, and dialogue. How can well tell better stories that reach new audiences for NBS? This workshop explores the building blocks of good storytelling using techniques from comics and theatre. We’ll break into groups to create scripts for stories that participants want to tell. Comic artists will be on hand to lead discussion and sketch some of the storytelling ideas the groups create.
