Also, as someone who has been a professional reader, I can show you through a reader’s eyes where a story becomes flawed, and how those stories can be improved to prevent you and your script from getting the dreaded PASS on coverage notes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #e8e8e8;\"\u003eThe Dirty Secret of Story Structure\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #e8e8e8;\"\u003e will take a meticulous look at the art of building dramatic structure within your story by learning how to do it in individual scenes. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #e8e8e8;\"\u003eEach and every scene in your script should serve as an opportunity to move the story forward. If it is not doing that, it’s not serving its correct purpose within the world of your story. Just as your overall screenplay has a beginning, a middle and an end, so too should each scene. Within each scene should be a character who wants something, and another character or entity that is trying to stop her. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #e8e8e8;\"\u003eDeveloping a structure within each scene to determine how those events transpire is just as important to telling your story as making sure the Act I to Act II transition happens somewhere between pages 25 and 30. However, the notion of dramatic structure has been misinterpreted for years. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #e8e8e8;\"\u003eDramatic structure is not necessarily what you think it is, and when it is re-examined, the thought of fitting a story within the confines of dramatic structure becomes less daunting.
