#59 - Quick Guide to Storytelling in Songwriting
Do you want to write a song that tells a story, and you'd love to have a list of all the components that go into a working story?
In this video, you will get a step-by-step list on how you can tell a story in a song. It's a five-step process that will allow you to outline your song, but also analyze the narrative structure of the songs you love.
💡 What you'll learn:
- the V.E.R.S.E. framework to outline your song lyrics so you know what you can put in the chorus and in the verses
- the five essential elements to include and the 5 key story moments to make for a strong narrative
- what questions you need to ask yourself about your story's setting to make it feel real
- how to bring it all together into a coherent outline
If you’re new to my channel, my name is Melanie Naumanni. I’m the creator of LyricMastery.com. It’s the place where you can master the craft of storytelling in songwriting and discover how to craft your lyric's content.
