'''Painting the Medium''' is modifying the presentation of a story in order to convey information about the story. A comic book might give a character special-looking [[Speech Bubbles]] that reflect on their personality. A TV show might change to black-and-white or sepia-tone during flashbacks. A video game might change its GUI to show a change in the player character or the setting. |
