Pandora Retold

Synopsis: The story is a type of retelling of Pandora. I was re-reading the story as listed in Thomas Bulfinch’s Mythology and he stated that it didn’t make much sense that everything was let out in to the world from a box of evils, but yet Hope remained. I agreed that it made more sense that it was all types of “feelings” that were let out in to the world. But why would Pandora want to open it? Her curiosity, yes, but why was she curious in the first place. In some of the readings about her I discovered that the gods had blessed her with graces. But what if they left something out? This story tells the story of a Pandora that was given many graces by the gods, but they left out “feelings” so naturally she was curious. I also stated, that she opened a urn, not as in a burial urn, but Bulfinch also stated that originally urns were used to hold things so they would also be fastened shut. So in this story she’s opening a box. I decided not to use narration. I personally do not like the sound of my own voice so I was trying to use an AI voice, but none of it was working out, and I felt that it took away from the story, because you’re focusing on that audio rather than the music and the story. In the format I used Canva completely.
