I found this story with my brain, simply because I created it! This is the story of how I broke my collarbone along with a few other things. I personally try to post a story about my life every week on YouTube! This story is interesting to me simply because of it's utter complexities and exaggerations. It makes light of something that happened, because focusing on the positives is so much more important then focusing on the negatives of any situation.
This relates to traditional story telling (when it gets to the actual story of how I broke my collarbone) because it follows the traditional outline for a story. We see characters, a conflict and a plot as well as many other things. The story is overall about thirty seconds. I don't feel that a story has to be a full on novel, but it can simply be a person telling something about his life in a concise, yet entertaining way.
My goal with this video, and all of my other videos is to leave the audience not only entertained, but I want them to leave with something more. Whether it be a moral or simply a laugh making their day a little better. I'm all about focusing on the positives. Even if I may mention a few negatives I rarely ever expound on them.
Don't worry, I am not as cocky as I seem from this post! An assignment is an assignment! :)

Nice work on saving that man child from being palate pleasure. I do like this take on a story though. I feel like lots of times people get all worked up over trying to come up with this amazing mind blowing story when it can simply be something that happened to us last week. There are so many great and simple stories out there we just need to start telling them. Nice video Parker, that's quite the way to break your collar bone!
ReplyDeleteWay to go the extra mile and create your own video! I like how you were able to get storytelling down to its simplest form: interpersonal communication (well, through a computer anyway). A lot of times when I think of storytelling or narratives I automatically think of novels or films, but those things exist in everyday conversation. Its important to remember that we can find great examples of narratives just about anywhere.
