Keep your audience interested The most important job of any storyteller is to keep the audience interested, and avoid disorienting them in terms of time, space, point of view, or in the narrative thread. No matter how compelling we think an issue or story is, it is our job to present that story in a way that engages the audienceâs intellect, their emotions, their senses of humor and justice, while not oversimplifying the issue or irresponsibly representing people or situations. To keep them engaged, the audience should know where they are, what they are seeing, and who is involved. They should know whom they are listening to and what the story is. The most basic building block you have that will keep your audience oriented is the sequenceâa series of shots that show the context and details of an action, person, situation, or location, presented in a way that makes sense to your audience. Your complete story is a series of different sequences, often structured with a beginning, middle and end.
