The Art of Storytelling for Freelancers and Creators
A course by Sun Yi

Storytelling is an art form that paints pictures with words instead of paintbrushes. It’s what develops the hero’s journey of a brand, which makes it relatable and leaves a lasting impression on its audience. Sun Yi, founder of Night Owls, has helped companies and organizations like Spotify, the American Red Cross, and Seiko enhance their storytelling through copywriting and branding.
