Storytelling is an ancient art , used to better understand the world we inhabit . Ancient civilizations would seek   out storytellers , works of visual art , and written fables to witness tales of hard times and happy endings .   Understanding the different types of storytelling is essential to telling your own story . 

 4 Types of Storytelling 

 In order to learn how to tell a great story , you first must understand the origins of good storytelling . These are   the types of storytelling that we have used to tell better stories since the dawn of human history : 

 1 . Oral storytelling : One of the oldest storytelling forms is the spoken word . Members of ancient societies 

 would captivate each other by sharing stories via song , chant , and the recitation of poetry . These oral   traditions would be passed on through generations . This form of storytelling could be a vehicle for any   type of story . In Ancient Greece , people would flock to a great storyteller like Homer , who would forge   an emotional connection with his audience as he told them a great story of epic battles and lost love .   On the other hand , oral storytelling is a way for real people to tell stories from their own lives . With the   advent of new forms of technology like radio and podcasts , the art form of oral storytelling now has the   ability to reach millions of people — from New York to Beijing — all at once . 

 2 . Visual storytelling : Humans have told visual stories for tens of thousands of years , as visual media 

 represents a simple way to tell a good story . Ancient cave paintings depicted animals , figures with   human characteristics , and real - life stories with themes of survival on cave walls . As society progressed ,   the evolution of storytelling progressed along with it . The hieroglyphs of ancient Egypt communicated   information and told a complex , engaging story composed of pictographic symbols representing both   sounds and characters . This art of storytelling has evolved even further through the modern mediums   of film and television , which offer an advanced , powerful way for a good storyteller to tell a compelling   story . 

 3 . Written storytelling : As long as there have been written words , there have been written stories . As 

 societies developed alphabets , oral and visual forms of storytelling were transcribed into written short   stories and epics . A classic example : Aesop ’s fables , which have their origins in the oral tradition but   were collected and transcribed centuries later . The invention of the printing press ushered in an era of   mass communication , in which different forms of story types — from fairy tales to newspapers to   novels — reached global audiences and altered the history of storytelling forever . 

 4 . Digital storytelling : Technology is a powerful tool that has transformed the way that we tell stories . The 

 rise of television , film , and radio has given great storytellers a wider platform than ever and has , in turn ,   led to the rise of new and innovative storytelling techniques . The internet allows us to have access to a   seemingly endless library of compelling stories from throughout human history with a simple click of a   button . In particular , the rise of blogging and social media — though technically still modes of written   storytelling — have reframed the kind of stories we interact with on a daily basis . Millions of Twitter ,   Instagram , and Facebook users tell their own personal stories with their own points of view every day .   With social media , we are all storytellers , trying to make sense of our own origin story one post at a   time . With each tweet and status update , we sharpen the storytelling skills that we ’ve been practicing   for millennia .
