Session 2: Exercise

Here is an exercise for you to complete in time for Session 3.

Bearing in mind the things we learned about plot and theme:

• Describe the main dramatic action AND the theme/s (‘what does it mean?’) in 5 of your favourite works of film/book. You can use the worksheet, if you like.
• Write an Elevator Pitch for your project/story in a few sentences, bearing in mind the distinction between action and theme.
