An 'empathy machine'? How virtual reality could affect #storytelling

An 'empathy machine'? How virtual reality could affect #storytelling | Business Improvement and Social media | Scoop.it
The documentary is being reinvented for virtual reality, but what challenges does this pose to content creators?
Ricard Lloria's insight:

Here's a fascinating article about the problems with virtual reality storytelling and empathy.

 

Virtual Reality (VR) is all the rage and very popular at SXSW. We know storytelling is a powerhouse for building our empathy muscles. But what is the impact of VR on empathy?

 

Turns out, it's not what you think. 

 

The aim of VR is to encourage a human connection and understanding between those wearing a headset and the characters in the story.

 

Problems around empathy rise when certain stories simply generate a feeling of helplessness in the participant that leads to greater detachment -- not greater human connection.

 

I love what one of those interviewed for the article says near the end: "But the empathy idea presents another problem for me – the notion that the world's problems arise from a scarcity of feeling rather than from issues of power, inequality and exploitation of people and planetary resources." Hear hear.

 

There are more details and insights to read in this long-very-long post, and it will make you go, "huh".

 

What do you think about VR, empathy, and this storytelling trend?

6 Lessons In #Storytelling From Steven Spielberg

6 Lessons In #Storytelling From Steven Spielberg | Business Improvement and Social media | Scoop.it
We are no strangers to the benefits of storytelling in content marketing. Knowing that audiences are more likely to remember (and share) stories that connect in an emotional way has allowed marketers to develop truly unique content. But storytelling is an art that requires finesse, integrity and a touch of humility, and there is possibly no greater storyteller than filmmaker Steven Spielberg.

With more than 30 films, seven Academy Award nominations and three wins, Spielberg has the...

La importancia de narrar contar historias personales nos hacen ser más humanos, siempre y cuando lo que contemos a los demás no se convierta en un mero chismorreo de azotea y lo que informes y transmitas a través de tus ideas, sentimientos, emociones, tampoco se convierta en un muro de lamentaciones, tiene que ser una herramienta para construir mensajes y conocimientos.

El ser humano está programado biológicamente para escuchar historias y responder ante ellas. El famoso concepto del “Storytelling” se centra en la comunicación a través de historias, para conseguir un mayor impacto en aquellos que nos escuchan, por ello, las técnicas del “Storytelling” son particularmente efectivas para convencer al receptor de cualquier información. Plantéense la siguiente pregunta:"¿Por qué la publicidad de automóviles ya apenas se centra en enumerar prestaciones, sino que se apoya en historias, experiencias y emociones?”

#Branding How to create and tell the story of your Brand | beloved brands | Business Improvement and Social media | Scoop.it
Sometimes, Brand Leaders write their strategic documents in such a boring way, others have a hard time following.  If you as the Brand Leader are the only one who understands your brand, then you're in trouble. The Brand story should distill everything you know about your brand (the vision, purpose, values, objectives, strategies, tactics, target market, insights, rational and emotional benefits, reason to believe) and organize it into something that is digest-able for everyone who might touch the brand--whether that's consumers, advocates, influencers, employees, agencies, retailers or the media.  So what makes a good story? Before getting into your Brand story, think of all of the great Super Hero stories of Batman, Spiderman or Wonder Woman and you see some commonality in what makes a good story in general.  For this purpose, let's use the fundamentals of a good Super Hero story and try to match up all the brand strategic inputs you may have to help tell the story.  The basis of the

Just Story It - Scoops

Just Story It - Scoops | Business Improvement and Social media | Scoop.it

Here are the best articles from across the web that I can find on using stories and storytelling in business.

I've chosen them because they actually make a contribution to our knowledge and wisdom about stories, show us how to apply stories to growing our businesses, or give valuable how-to tips.

 

I weed out all the junk. And besides, who needs another post in why storytelling is important?? Where's the beef?? We want the meat!

 

I've written reviews of each article to share what I like best, what you can get from reading the article, or what may be missing in the article.

 

How To Find A Topic: Click on the Filter tab above, and type in a keyword. All the articles with that keyword will appear.

 

I may occassionally review an article that I think is problematic as a way to educate us all, although most I will simply pass over.  If you wonder if I've seen an article that is not included here, send me a message and I'll respond.

After doing biz story work for over a decade (and with a PhD in Folklore) I hope you find many great insights and tips here. Many thanks for visiting and enjoy the articles!
