Notes:

• a story starts with something that goes wrong ( called inciting incident)
• characters in a situation is what story telling is (most of the time dealing with something that is out of the comfort zone)
• establish reality and tear it away
• start fast and dramatic to get the audience to expect that for the rest of the movie
• when a story slows down audience expects something to happen to speed up the story
• you need to catch your audiences attention and make sure to keep it
• if you write a book not every one is going to want to read it.
• audiences are taught to make snap judgments on a book
