Question

Read the two script descriptions below and note down what is wrong or right with them from a visual storytelling perspective:

Answer 1

John and glen sit at a table at a restaurant

Answer 2

Answer:

Sample 2 describes the characters visually. The writer details the character’s emotions and gestures. In Sample 1, the scene lacks a vivid visual description, which makes it difficult for the reader to understand or visualize the scene.

Sample 2 clearly mentions what the characters are wearing and how they look. Sample 1 only mentions that two men are sitting at a restaurant. There is no additional information that can help a reader visualize the characters or setting while reading the description.

Sample 1 gives a vague description of how the character gets angry and fights with the biker, but Sample 2 describes in detail how the characters first glares at the biker before hurling punches at him. Sample 2 gives many visual cues, which can help professionals such as the cameraman and costume designer.
