One key element could be the incorporation of scientific knowledge. For example, instead of a purely religious or mythical account, it might include ideas from the Big Bang theory. Another element is often a more inclusive view of different cultures' creation beliefs, showing how they can coexist or be related. Also, a contemporary telling may focus on the role of humanity in the creation, like our responsibility for the environment which is part of the 'creation' we are now in charge of.

A contemporary telling often includes scientific facts. Traditional creation stories were mostly based on religious or cultural beliefs passed down orally or in ancient texts. In contrast, contemporary tellings might incorporate concepts like the origin of the universe from a scientific perspective such as the Big Bang. Also, contemporary versions are more likely to be inclusive of different cultures and religions, whereas traditional ones were often specific to a particular group.

One idea is to start from the very beginning, like the void before anything existed. Describe how the first element, maybe light or energy, emerged. For example, in some creation stories, there is a powerful being that simply wills light into existence.

A great idea is to use symbolism. For example, if you want to tell a creation story about a new society, you can use the symbol of a seed. The seed represents the potential for new life. It is planted (the start of the society), it grows roots which are like the basic laws and values of the society, and then it sprouts and grows into a tree which is the fully - formed society with all its aspects like culture, economy, etc.

Movement is key. Different types of movements like jumps, turns, and slow glides can be used to convey different parts of the story. Gestures are also important. A simple pointing gesture can direct the audience's attention to an important aspect of the story. Another element is rhythm. A change in rhythm can signal a change in the story's mood or pace.
