Irish Storytelling

An aimless, meandering, stream-of-consciousness narrative form rife with circumstantial details that ultimately dominate the principal plot and serve as jarring segues between thematically unrelated acts.

Person A: Hey man, whats up?
Person B: My life is so tragic. This one time I went fishing with my dad all day and we didn't catch a fish between us and then I pissed my pants. Then I saw an octopus."
A: That story was all over the place!

B: No it wasn't. I did eat a chocolate bar too.
A: Nigga, you are great at Irish Storytelling.

African thigh-slapping storytelling

Part of African culture that hands down stories from one generation to the next that involves melodic thigh slapping.

My grandfather went for hours with African thigh-slapping storytelling. I hate being black.

Technological Integrated Storytelling (or T.I.S.)

Technological Integrated Storytelling (or T.I.S.) is the process of storytelling through multiple screens. In order to get the full story the audience is required to to watch various devices such as a TV, computer and or phone etc.

Because today's youth is so electronically advanced, Technological Integrated Storytelling (or T.I.S.) is a modern approach to teaching.

Spoonfed storytelling

Writing or scripting that feels the incessant need to over-explain everything to the viewer, even obvious things. It's most prevalent in poorly made modern movies from 2000 onward. It implies that studios believe audiences are so dumb that they won't be able to follow a complex story.

Damn, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen was godawful. The special effects were cool but the spoonfed storytelling was insulting.

Brand Storyteller

A brand storytelling is a person who uses emotional narratives to do nothing.

“Oh, brand storyteller? Nice so what’s it about?”
- You see this bar?
- Yes
- Do you want a drink?

Junk Food Storytelling

When you rehash an old story, again and again, but nothing is added to the story. It is just another reHASH of the characters doing the same thing, over and over again. It adds nothing, but might be brighter and more full of fluff than anything with any semblance of character development. How many times do we have to see The Phoenix Saga done?

Watching X-Men:Apocalypse makes me sad, the level of Junk Food Storytelling is pathetic, and just to give the actor a softball role to play.

HARSHNOISE STORYTELLING

Harshnoise-Storytelling is a genre of music created in 2018 by Québécois music producer Alexandre Cubaynes on Soundcloud for his debut album Tape I.

It's caracteristics are overgained vocals of a copypasta and greentext theme and ripped off background music.
None is sure wether this genre subscribes to ironic memes or deeply sincere performance.

"hey bro, do you know that old school Navy SEAL gorilla warfare copypasta?"
"Yeah man, Alexandre Cubaynes made a harshnoise storytelling track on his Soundcloud!"
