The basic story Crafting Stories for Meant To Be Told
First Entertain. And last. And everywhere in between
Stories arise, before they can do something else. You do not have the luxury of choosing between an entertaining story and a story has a strong message. Each story should be entertaining, even if it means improving the truth. When I say, narrator of the story will say they embellish, "But that's not how it really happened." So what if, as it happened really your audience is made sleep. Your first priority is to make it interesting, do not stick to the facts.
Know the purpose of your story
Every story has a meaning if they get to even at your audience laugh. Know the purpose of your story. Do you know the message. Do you know why you say and what you hope to achieve by this story. Know what's funny and powerful story is done.
Share your story in one sentence
No, I'm not saying that your story must be one sentence long. Before writing you, I would be able to say in one sentence. You do not need to include the entire plot, but you need to morality are by history. Example: This is a story of a young girl learns that different times can be a good thing. If you are able to tell your story in one sentence, you begin with a check on your history and where it goes. You can see immediately if a story does not have nothing.
Write what your reader needs to know
In fact, I make a list. Yes, exactly. How boring and unimaginative as it may seem, I make a list of things to know my needs to drive. Not what I would say to them, but the things they need to know about the story to make sense. The fun stuff can come later.
Beware of personal stories
Something happens to a story, when we arrived. We lose objectivity. Be very careful to trust a story that happens to you. Try it with others. See if they laugh in social circles. If not, then it is not as good as it was believed it. Indeed, I break the story and image, to tell someone else.
Find the story that suits you
This is a story that speaks to your heart. If this does not mean nothing to you, it means nothing to them. Be authentic. That's it.
Short and simple
The more you trim your story, the better. Period. It is not how many words you use, but the words you use. Say more with less. Replace three points with three sentences. Do not write long stories, writing stories and together they laid, if you have something longer need.
Specific enough to be to be credible, universal enough relatable
The more specific and personal you get, the more you will be history. Target for the stories that happened to them, have only a few people you hear. Avoid stories that most people do not identify. Search stories, topics, can identify most people need.
Start and end with a bang
You have thirty seconds to attract their attention. Do not start an affair with a ten minute introductory material. I can not stand it when someone takes a quarter of an hour to get me prepared for a story they are telling about. Start with a bang and end with a bang. Stay not at the end of the ride your point of death. End of story and released.
The story in detail
It is in the characters and descriptions, and describe the things that no one else before. Use your senses. Show us tell the story, rather than us the story.
Do you have real character, interesting and credible
I think that this makes not the action of the story, but the people. Make your characters real - with personalities and quirks - and if you are at a loss, look around. The real world has more material than we ever hope to create in your own imagination.
Leave and tell your story as if you talk to a friend
They do not give a new post to tell you a story. So, as you write, speak. Making comfortable. Do you understand it easily and to follow.
Learn your history
Get to your story - every word. Practice Then, he says, if you remember not to do it. Learning history in scenes. Provide an overview and understanding of the major lines. If you do not, your story well, then run a great risk for the gaps to be filled with unnecessary information.
Get the best in people
Stay away from stories that inspire the fear or guilt. Take not into the depths of despair, do you really know what you. You must know that you are good. Keep control of your emotions. If you are too emotional, you run the risk of being perceived as manipulative.
Let Feeling Hopeful
The viewers want with stories happy ending. If you drop, bring her back. Jeez, at least, that this is a place where they can live happily ever after.
Do not hold it back
This is the best story wins in the end - not good. Do not consider it back because you fear shows are tacky. Do not play safe. Safe is boring.
Show your humanity and you will be her touch
Whether writing or the story of the story - Put into your personality. Be yourself. Be be passionate, convincing and genuine. Put your feelings into the story, or it has no relation to your target audience. Show your humanity and touch.
Like most things in life, not on talent, it's about persistence
I have often heard that the most successful people are not always those who have talent, but those who go beyond it. It's the same with stories. Sometimes doing your history does not hit the mark. Sometimes, to develop stories from the time and selling really. Keep it to. It will be interesting to see the work you put into it.
