Title:
4 Week: What a Concept!

Cost:
$150.00

Description:

We all begin our stories with an idea; something that has caught our creative imagination and simply will not let go. That's the good news. The bad news? An idea alone does not a story make. This class will help you move from concept to story. What is the foundation of a good story? What do we need to accomplish before we are ready to actually sit down and write? The concept, or premise as some call it, is the place we begin. It is here we determine who our main character is and begin the process of fleshing out the journey they take in pursuit of the compelling reason the story is being told. If you don't take the time to prepare before you begin your journey, you shouldn’t be surprised if you get a half-baked idea trying to pass itself off as a story.

Whether you are writing a screenplay or a novel, are at the very beginning of the trail, or toward the end of the process and are unsatisfied with what you have, this class is a class for you. We will concentrate on developing the best character to tell your story, the central conflict, and the pathway forward, sharing and commenting on each other’s work in a supportive workshop atmosphere and using exercises from John Truby’sAnatomy of a Story to advance the work. By the end of the four weeks you will have a concept document that identifies a clear foundation on which to base your story and a vision forward into your screenplay or novel.
