Storytelling day 5 and 6 : The two days of our storytelling workshop were packed with engaging discussions, thought-provoking videos, and a movie that tied everything together.Day 5: Exploring Abhinaya and Story Ideas. We began the day by delving into the world of Abhinaya, a crucial aspect of storytelling in Indian classical dance and theater. Our facilitators guided us through an immersive session, where we learned about four distinct types of Abhinaya:1. Angika Abhinaya : The art of conveying emotions through physical gestures and postures.2. Vachika Abhinaya : The use of voice and speech to express emotions and tell stories.3. Aharya Abhinaya : The employment of costumes, makeup, and accessories to enhance the storytelling experience.4. Sattvika Abhinaya : The expression of emotions through internal feelings and emotional states. Following the Abhinaya session, we shifted our focus to generating story ideas. Our facilitators provided prompts and guidelines, and we worked in groups to create three to five story ideas, each with its own unique theme and genre, sharing Stories and getting feedback. After developing our story ideas, we took turns sharing them with the group. This was a valuable opportunity to receive feedback, suggestions, and encouragement from our peers. Day 6: Refining Our Stories : we revisited our story ideas and worked on refining the one that resonated with us the most. Our facilitators offered guidance and support as we honed our storytelling skills.
