Abstract

The advent of digital technology has revolutionized the landscape of storytelling, particularly within the realm of visual arts. This paper explores the techniques and impact of digital storytelling in visual arts, examining how artists harness digital tools to craft narratives that transcend traditional mediums. By integrating elements such as animation, interactive interfaces, and multimedia, digital storytelling offers a rich tapestry of creative possibilities. The paper delves into the various techniques employed in digital storytelling, including 3D modeling, motion graphics, and virtual reality, and discusses their influence on the visual arts landscape. It further analyses the impact of digital storytelling on audience engagement, fostering a deeper connection between viewers and the artwork. The paper concludes that the integration of digital storytelling techniques has not only expanded the creative boundaries of visual arts but has also opened up new avenues for cultural expression and communication.
