Story Beyond The Frame: Interactive Visual Narrative Lab

Laboratorio de Comunicación 3

This course operates as an experimental laboratory that examines the role of non-verbal audiovisual storytelling as a strategic discourse within the contemporary digital landscape. It transitions from passive theory to applied strategy, enabling students to construct complex visual and emotional meaning through a deep understanding of advanced composition, expressive staging, psychological sound design, precise editing, and color grading. The course focuses on the development of critical and technical competencies through highly engaging professional simulations: starting from a single, dialogue-free initial image, students collaboratively produce branching storylines, proving how one frame can ignite multiple narrative possibilities and alternate timelines.

By bridging the gap between bold artistic intention and rigorous professional workflows, such as visual continuity and interactive assembly, the course equips students with the comprehensive skills required for their future professional practice. In that sense, they will be capable of directing complex, multi-threaded narratives and defending original visual signatures in an increasingly globalized and technically demanding market.
