Strange Buildings and efficient storytelling

from Story Stripdown · host Drew Pan

Japanese horror-mystery creator Uketsu has a unique way of storytelling with a focus on different ways to convey information, like children's drawings and floor plans. Strange Buildings leans into the floor plans and strips back unnecessary details that might detract from the important elements and slow down the pace. But does it drop too many details and descriptions to the point where audiences detach themselves from the characters? This week, we look at the pros and cons of efficient storytelling.
