ABOUT THE WEBINAR
Story prep is perhaps the single most important part of screenwriting. Knowing how to generate story ideas, choose the strongest concept to develop and how to find the shape of the narrative all before you start writing is vital to developing a marketable screenplay that emotionally connects with readers and ultimately audiences. Too often writers get bogged down in the process of prepping a story and end up losing their way, wasting valuable time, giving up or developing a story that doesn't have legs. Using the same process many professional writers use to break stories this webinar will give you a method you can immediately use to fine tune and streamline your story prep process and get your ideas on the page.
In this webinar we'll explore how to find story ideas and test your concepts. Then we'll go through the process of finding the overall shape of the narrative by using the protagonist's journey as the story's spine. With the main character's internal and external goals driving the story we'll crack the plot using conflict and the three act structure. Having broken the story we'll look at ways to effectively take this through to an outline for the script.
Finding your own unique story prep process is key to getting your story out of your head and onto the page. This webinar will give you a proven method for taking your ideas from concept to outline so that you can start writing pages with confidence.
