Project progress

On Saturday (Nov 1) we began focusing individually on progress and narrative process for each student's project. From here on out, our work each week will be a guidance session with myself and your student-peers on the 4-page story (or "story episode") we will complete during this workshop, based on what we've determined together are the goals for your work. 

Damien and Kim made real progress in developing their stories this week, and I'm looking forward to reviewing work with everyone else, and helping you all establish character and story arc movement/s that can be developed and worked out as either "establishing" or keystone moments in your narrative, or stand-alone stories, or backstory/biographical pivots, or whatever you think works best. Some of you did not attend the workshop session, but because each project requires input from your peers, we will wait until next week to see where you're at in your story development and/or where you want to take your characters in the 4-page assignment; I'd like to focus on a self-contained story that fits within the larger framework of your project, so please attend next week's session prepared to discuss this, and review progress from the previous week.

Thanks, see you on Saturday!
