VISUAL STORYTELLING

1) Imagery- When reading a book, we are forced to think deeply and picture in our own minds exactly what the accoutrements being described as actually look like in reality but when watching a movie, you do not necessarily have to struggle with this at all. When this coalesce is given to us right there for us to see with our very own eyes and not have to worry about minute details, it makes it that much easier and stress-relieving.
2) Music- The apogee in the music that we hear in movies is truly a gift in the sense that when we read we have to pick out exactly what they could mean and still be wrong while in a movie, it is all there ready for you to embrace and not have to worry or think about or interpret. This effect is very disparate in both books and movies.
3) Excitement- Visual Storytelling presents us with IMAGES. It is not a problem culling between a movie and a book because it is much more fun to watch a movie than sit there and read  200 pages of little to almost no relevancy to your life. Movies are also quicker and less dogmatic than reading.

These three are all a convolution to what makes visual storytelling that much more exciting than reading. Most of the time when we read, the ideas almost seem to be meted. It also always much easier to determine probity within a movie due to hand movements and facial gestures. And for some reason, movies always tend to terminate with a truncated ending which leaves the consumers thirsty for more.
