2. Creating A Short Story Writing 1. Craft your premise. OutlineYour premise is the basic idea for your story. But it’s not enough to just have an idea. “Guy saves girl in an intergalactic setting” is a premise, but it’s also far too vague to offer much solid story guidance. This is why your outline needs to begin with a tightly crafted premise sentence that can answer the following questions: Who is the protagonist? What is the situation? What is the hero’s personal condition at the beginning? How will that condition be changed, for better or worse, by the hero himself or by the antagonistic force?

3. • What is the protagonist’s objective? At the beginning, what does the hero want? What moral (or immoral) choices will she have to make in her attempt to gain that objective? • Who is the opponent? Who or what stands in the way of the hero achieving his objective? • What will be the disaster? What misfortune will befall the hero as the result of her attempts to achieve her objective? • What’s the conflict? What conflict will result from the hero’s reaction to the disaster? And what is the logical flow of cause and effect that will allow this conflict to continue throughout the story?

4. Once you’ve answered these questions, combine them into one or two sentences: Restless farm boy (situation) Luke Skywalker (protagonist) wants nothing more than to leave home and become a starfighter pilot, so he can live up to his mysterious father (objective). But when his aunt and uncle are murdered (disaster) after purchasing renegade droids, Luke must free the droids’ beautiful owner and discover a way to stop (conflict) the evil Empire (opponent) and its apocalyptic Death Star. 2. Roughly sketch scene ideas. Armed with a solid premise, you can now begin sketching your ideas for this story. Write a list of everything you already know about your story. You’ll probably come to this step with a handful of scenes already in mind. Even if you have no idea how these scenes will play out in the story, go ahead and add them to the list. At this point, your primary goal is to remember and record every idea you’ve had in relation to this story. Once you’ve finished, take a moment to review your list. Whenever you encounter an idea that raises questions, highlight it. If you don’t know why your character is fighting a duel in one scene, highlight it. If you don’t know how two scenes will connect, highlight them. If you can’t

5. Work to create a linear, well-structured plot with no gaps in the story (see the checklist on the opposite page). If you can get this foundation right in your outline, you’ll later be free to apply all your focus and imagination to the first draft and bring your story to life. As you mentally work through each scene, watch for possible lapses of logic or blank areas in how one event builds to another. Take the time to think through these potential problems so they won’t trip you up later. If you get stuck, try jumping ahead to the next scene you know, and then working backward. For instance, if you know where you want your characters to end up, but not how they’ll get there, start at the ending point and then see if you can figure out what has to happen in the preceding events to make it plausible. 2017-glaThe biggest literary agent database anywhere is the Guide to Literary Agents. Pick up the most recent updated edition online at a discount. Picture the setting for one of the scenes, highlight that, too. By pausing to identify possible plot holes now, you’ll be able to save yourself a ton of rewriting later on. Your next step is to address each of the highlighted portions, one by one. Write out your ideas and let your thoughts flow without censoring yourself. Because this is the most unstructured step of your outline, this will be your best opportunity to unleash your creativity and plumb the depths of your story’s potential. Ask yourself questions on the page. Talk to yourself without worrying about punctuation or spelling.

6. Every time you think you’ve come up with a good idea, take a moment to ask yourself, “Will the reader expect this?” If the answer is yes, write a list of alternatives your readers won’t expect.

In order to craft a cast of characters that can help your plot reach its utmost potential, you’ll need to discover crucial details about them, not necessarily at the beginning of their lives but at the beginning of the story. To do this for your protagonist, work backward from the moment in which he will become engaged in your plot (the “disaster” in your premise sentence). What events in your protagonist’s life have led him to this moment? Did something in his past cause the disaster? What events have shaped him to make him respond to the disaster in the way he does? What unresolved issues from his past can further complicate the plot’s spiral of events? Once you have a basic idea of how your character will be invested in the main story, you can start unearthing the nitty-gritty details of his life with a character interview. You may choose to follow a preset list of questions (you can find a list of more than 100 such questions in my book Outlining Your Novel: Map Your Way to Success), or you may have better luck with a “freehand interview” in which you ask your protagonist a series of questions and allow him to answer in his own words. [Here’s a great article on how to structure a killer novel ending.]

7. 4. Explore your settings. Whether your setting is your childhood neighborhood or the seventh moon of Barsoom, you’ll want to enter your first draft with a firm idea of where your prominent scenes will be taking place. Don’t choose a setting just because it sounds cool or because you’re familiar with it. Look for settings that will be inherent to your plot. Can you change your story’s primary locale without any significant alterations to the plot? If so, dig a little deeper to find a setting better suited to your plot, theme and character

8. Based on the scenes you’re already aware of, list the settings you think you’ll need. Can you reduce this list by combining or eliminating settings? Nothing wrong with a sprawling story locale, but extraneous settings should be eliminated just as assiduously as unnecessary characters. 5. Write your complete outline.  You’re finally ready to outline your story in full. This is where you will begin plotting in earnest. In Step 2, you solidified the big picture of your story by identifying the scenes you were already aware of and figuring out how they might fit together. Now, you will work through your story linearly, scene by scene, numbering each one as you go. Unlike the “sketches” in Step 2, in which your primary focus was on brainstorming and exploring possibilities, you will now be concentrating on molding your existing ideas into a solid structure. How comprehensive you want to be is up to you. You may choose to write a single sentence for each scene (“Dana meets Joe at the café to discuss their impending nuptials”), or you may choose to flesh out more details (“Joe is sitting by himself in a booth when Dana arrives; Dana orders coffee and a muffin; they fight about the invitation list”). Either way, focus on identifying and strengthening the key components of each scene’s structure. Who will be your narrating character? What is his goal? What obstacle will arise to obstruct that goal and create conflict? What will be the outcome, and how will your character react to the resulting dilemma? What decision will he reach that will fuel the next scene’s goal?

9. 6. Condense your outline. Once you’ve finished your extended outline, you may want to condense the most pertinent points into an abbreviated version. Doing so allows you to weed out extraneous thoughts and summarize the entire outline into a scannable list for easier reference. Because your full outline may contain a fair amount of rambling and thinking out loud on the page, you’re likely to end up with a lot of notes to review (I often have nearly three notebooks of material). Rather than having to wade through the bulk of your notes every time you sit down to work on your first draft, you can save yourself time in the long run by doing a little organizing now. You may choose to create your abbreviated outline in a Word document, write out your scenes on index cards, or use a software program such as the free Scrivener alternativey Writer.

10. 7. Put your outline into action.  By now, you’ll be feeling prepared and eager to get going on your first draft. Each time you sit down to work on your manuscript, begin by reviewing your outline. Read the notes for your current scene and the scene to follow. Before you start writing, work through any remaining potential problems in your head or on paper. If the time comes (and it will come) when you’re struck with a better idea than what you had planned in your outline, don’t hesitate to go off-road. These ventures into unknown territory can result in some of the most surprising and intriguing parts of your story. An outline will offer you invaluable structure and guidance as you write your first draft, but never be afraid to explore new ideas as they occur. Remember, your outline is a map showing you the route to your destination, but that doesn’t mean it is the only route.

25. Importing Video To import video, click the Add videos and photos button under the home menu. From there, find your video files. If you are importing from a camera, try browsing to your camera under “Computer” in the file browser. Then choose the file you want to import. Editing Select a video clip by clicking on it. You can drag and drop clips to rearrange their sequence. When you have a clip selected, you will see a new menu, Video Tools, appear up top. Here you will see options to split your clip, trim it, or change the speed. The Split tool will cut your clip in two at the point where your cursor is in the storyboard pane. This is really helpful for dividing up a long clip of footage. To delete a clip, simply select it and hit your Delete key. You can add transitions between clips by selecting a clip, then choosing one you like under the Animations menu. This will add the transition to the beginning of the selected clip. Adding Photos To add photos, you also use the Add videos and photos button. If you select your photo in the Storyboard, you’ll see the Video Tools menu again. You can change the Duration of your photos; the default is 7 seconds. You can make your photos move by choosing from the “Pan and zoom” options under the Animations menu.

26. Using Text You can add text in three ways, under the home menu. A Title adds text onto its own blank background, which is great to use for your opening title, and for pull quotes from your scholarly sources. If you want your text to show over top of the video or photo you have on screen, you want a Caption. For scrolling credits--these will automatically be placed at the end--choose Credits. Whenever you select a clip with text, you’ll see a new menu up top: Text Tools. This gives you a ton of options to animate your text, change fonts and sizes, etc. Adding Music & Narration Add music (surprise!) through the Add music button under the home menu. The drop- down on this button links to sources of free-to-use music such as Vimeo and Free Music Archive. Once you have added a music clip, it shows up as a green bar under your video clips. You can drag and drop these to move them just like video clips. You’ll also see the Music Tools menu appear. In here, you can change the music volume, add fades, and split the track (where your cursor is). You can record a narration with the button. Hit the red button and start speaking into your computer’s built-in mic. Try to record in a quiet place with no background noise. Emphasis At any point in your project where you have multiple media sources playing (e.g., video clip with background music and narration), you can choose to emphasize one source, such as your narration, by choosing one under the Project menu. Here are the options: Exporting your Final Video To export your final video to turn in or share, click the Save movie button under the Home menu. The default setting is good; or from the drop-down menu choose For computer. WORKSHOP for OUTPUT PREPARATION
