Parts help you split your story into simple bite-sized chunks around sub-themes or specific questions. We split story topics into parts to make the process of reflecting on experiences and recording video simple and stress-free plus support the narrative so people can share the most compelling stories.
The idea of structuring a story into parts that follow a narrative arc is a common strategy e.g. The Hero’s Journey or Three Act Structure.
Check out the template library to see examples of how you can use parts to build a story.
Adding time limits to Parts
Creators produce better quality content, and find it less stressful, if they share their story in shorter video segments. To help, StoryTagger provides four options for time limits which you can allocate to each Part: 15s, 30s, 45s, 60s.
In most cases, we recommend that stories don’t exceed 2 – 3 mins in total, but you can use as many parts as you need to help Creators shape and tell their story.
