I believe that the slideshow without audio seemed to give the complete story better in this circumstance, but that is just because of the fact that the silent slideshow is about Anne Frank. I would normally think that audio is always a help when it comes to creating a story. The slideshow is a better tool for making a story because you can put the photos in an order that delivers an impact to the audience. I don't really believe that photo galleries are the best option because they seem somewhat random and not in the correct order. Sound makes an incredible differences because I feel that it brings out peoples emotions even more and can only add the the experience. Overall, the best storytelling device would be an audio slideshow.
