I agree on the elements of a good storyline, but the more I learn in depth about how stories are created in the various disciplines, the more parallels I see. The discipline where the information-storyline and the engagement-storyline are made explicit is in creating documentaries. You have a certain amount of information you want to share, but you need to use the power of storytelling to keep people interested and engaged in the story. I think this can be of great benefit to other disciplines, like presentation design or User Experience. On the other hand, traditional film and documentary making needs to reinvent itself to be ready for more innovative forms of delivery, like interactive or 360 film… So lots of work to do! Glad you want to be part of it! ;-)
