Points of Light

FINALLY!! We can use VISUALS!

I'm a very visual person ... well visual and kinetic, but that's hard to get across even on television. Being able to show a product, it's uses, creating an ideal image of the product, showing a situation, not always having to use words. What's the quote about actions and only using words when we need to? ........
“Preach the Gospel at all times. When necessary, use words.” - St. Francis of Assisi
Okay ... so not exactly the same idea. Let's try this one:
"Actions speak louder than words."
That's more like it. But both quotes point out the we don't need words to communicate effectively. Sometimes learning to tell a story through only pictures makes you think a little more. What best communicates the ideas you're thinking of without plugging this feature or that, or the price tag, or talking about all the benefits the product has? It's a question that you can start to answer when you get the opportunity to take words out of the equation.
