 * **3. Emotional Content** || Serious issues that come alive in a personal and powerful way and connects the story to the audience. ||
 * **4. The Gift of Your Voice** || A way to personalize the story to help the audience understand the context. ||
 * **5. The Power of the Soundtrack** || Music or other sounds that support and embellish the storyline. ||
