“I love storytelling. If you strip all the bits away, what you'll find at the center is a storyteller. As I warm to my career and love it more, I have a sense that storytelling is healing, in many ways. You can reach an audience and heal, and by heal, I mean entertain and provoke. It's a wonderful life.” IfsWayMeanBitsHealingCareersAudienceWonderfulAnd LoveWarmHealLove StoryStorytellingProvokingStorytellerWonderful LifeIt's A Wonderful Life Author:Ben Kingsley
“I really enjoy the direct dialogue with the fans. I'm very cognizant of my audience. I'm a trained storyteller and entertainer, and I know I wouldn't be able to work at the level I work at if people didn't enjoy what I did.” PeopleIfsKnowsAbleEnjoyLevelsAudienceFansDirectDialogueStorytellerEntertainersCognizant Author:Elizabeth Banks
“What serialized cable dramas have given us is the opportunity to not simply tell the same story with slightly different words and different costumes, every week. people are really mining the ability of storytellers to tell a long form story that goes from A to Z, and to trust that an audience will follow that. If they miss it, over the course of the week, they can watch it online or buy the DVD. There are so many different ways of interacting with it. Storytelling in television is getting more complex and more nuanced.” PeopleIfsWayLongDifferentStoriesFormCoursesOpportunityGivenAbilityWatchesAudienceWeekMissingTelevisionDramaComplexesStorytellingDifferent WaysOnlineStorytellerCostumesCablesDvdsInteractingMining Author:Sarah Wayne Callies
“You turn the computer into the storyteller and the player into the audience, like in the old days when the storyteller would actually respond to the audience, rather than just having the audience respond to the storyteller. I had an enormous amount of fun, actually, working on that.” TurnsFunAudiencePlayerAmountComputerEnormousStorytellerOld Days Author:Douglas Adams
“TV is such a success nowadays because it gives back in a way that features can't. If you go to a film, you only get two hours of great storytellers and performers, and you pay top dollar for that. If you're subscribing to premium channels and you're getting all of these amazing TV shows, and you're watching them as you want, where you want, when you want, on what you want, I think that is the "the golden era of TV" in what television shows are offering to audiences. We're giving them a lot more. It's quality.” IfsThinkingWayWantGivingTwoShowsFilmHoursPayQualityAudienceTelevisionTvsDollarsWhat You WantGoldenErasFeaturesPerformersOfferingTv ShowsStorytellerGiving BackTelevision ShowsPremium Author:Milo Ventimiglia
