A while ago I wrote an article about philosophy with photography. I've always believed that having a deep understanding of the WHY is super important when creating art.
I believe that because in order to inspire and make an impact on people, you need to understand it at a philosophical depth. Because when you do this, it allows you to think differently that allows you to create very potent stories.

The foundation of a story
I spent a long time trying to figure out how to describe the foundation of a story. After lots of research, interviews, and studying the stories that Jesus taught in the Bible, I finally came up with something interesting. This is what I created and if you take the time to understand it, the meaning is beautiful!
Understanding the foundation
I cannot explain to you how to understand the above chart, but I can explain how to think about it. The document below should help you understand how to think.
Building a story
The charts are not finished without the third one. This chart puts the entire story into perspective and is the most fun chart to look at! I use an analogy of a building to represent what a powerful story is.
Enjoy!
Thanks for checking out the charts that I created! I hope you enjoy them and are able to create stories that inspire people!
If you have any questions, please contact me! I would love to hear from you.
Sincerely,
Gabriel Dupon
