As I’m about to live my script here are some quick notes (below) one should incorporate in their story.
(1) BIG BEGINNING & ENDING– You have to grab them on the first page(s), make sure you have enough to keep them reading and leave them with the moment at the end.
(2) CHARACTERS ARE KEY- No person is entirely black or white and neither should your characters be. Let the reader explore the various colors that make up the character and surprise them along the journey.
(3) SHOCK & AWE- Surprises and twists keep the reader on your path and the mundane pulls them away.
(4) EXPLORE YOUR POINT- What is the reason you are writing this script, what do you want the reader to get out of your story and does the action and dialogue bring them to this conclusion no matter what personal path they are on.
(5)FORESHADOWING AND SYMBOLS- Yes, dialogue is key but action can tell the story in ways the subconscious never saw coming.
