Strong travel stories are edited, not merely recorded.
Story Spine
- Arrival and anticipation
- Historical layering
- Tension (prison/fortress)
- Release (terrace view)
- Reflection (bridge at dusk)
Caption Formula
Detail -> Context -> Why it matters
Suggested 8-Image Sequence
| Frame | Purpose |
|---|---|
| 1 | Establishing bridge approach |
| 2 | Monument scale |
| 3 | Interior movement |
| 4 | Symbol detail |
| 5 | Art/power room |
| 6 | Defensive layer |
| 7 | Terrace release |
| 8 | Blue-hour closure |
Bottom Line
Castel Sant'Angelo already contains narrative tension. Your job is to reveal it in the right order.
