In this program we see how these elements are brought to life through the careful choices of the author. With clear and concise explanations of these key elements and examples that viewers will readily relate to, this is an essential introduction to the fundamentals of narrative writing.

This program discusses the three-act structure in scenes and scene sequences. It discusses how to use structure to give you stronger turning points (surprising reveals, twists, turns, scene transitions) and non-traditional structural forms that have created such great films as Pulp Fiction, Crash, Ordinary People, Before the Rain & Sleepless in Seattle.
