Communicate Ideas through Story (Skillshare)

Offered by Skillshare,

This is class is part of Skillshare's Creativity & Innovation series. A crucial step in the creative process is communicating the ideas you've generated. Whether to friends, teammates, clients, or investors, you'll need others to understand what you're proposing and get them as excited about it as you are.

We believe that the most effective way to communicate, share, and build enthusiasm for an idea is to frame it as a story. In this short class, we'll explore why stories are so effective, the common elements of all great stories, and 3 steps for turning any idea into an unforgettable story of your own.
You'll never share an idea the same way again. Persuade a friend to visit your favorite vacation spot. Share a story that engages your audience and demonstrates why this particular place is your favorite.
Communicate your story in 2 minutes or less. Most importantly: be creative! Use any medium you'd like—video, visuals, words, a sketch, or a combination.
