Storytelling is the art of triggering and managing the fervent creation of images, ideas, inspiration and understanding in the minds of an audience. This workshop focuses on how to target your audience with your story and get them to create along with you. Participants must come prepared with a 5-to-10 minute story or segment (fiction, nonfiction, personal, or work/research related) that needs honing for an upcoming presentation, performance, or thesis defense. This is not a workshop on slide presentations, but on the story foundation on which your slides or other materials would stand.
Each participant will have an opportunity to be coached by two professional storytelling instructors and coaches, while also gaining the benefit of watching others being coached.
This workshop is led by two seasoned performing storytellers. Kevin Brooks is a Media Lab alumnus and has performed stories for the stage and corporate sponsors. He is co-author of Storytelling for User Experience: Crafting Stories for Better Design. Laura Packer is a storyteller, teacher and coach, who has performed and taught at venues around the world.
