Avoid White Room Syndrome
Beats v. stage direction. Setting, setting, setting! Goals, motivation and emotions. Texts being an awesome narrative tool.We made a couple of references to books this episode. The first was Dwight V. Swain's Techniques of the Selling Author. Mr. Swain discusses scene-sequel and motivation-reaction units. Excellent book despite being pretty dang old. The other book was Lisa Hall-Wilson's Method Acting For Writers: Learn Deep Point Of View Using Emotional Layers, which discusses, remarkably enough, deep point of view. Links for both below.Swain's Techniques for the Selling Author.Method Acting For Writers: Learn Deep Point Of View Using Emotional Layers Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
