Outlining stories

Outlining Stories

When most people make a story outline, they make crap.

When we outline, we need to make gold.

A golden outline for a story:


1. Visual story structure

2. Major questions to answer

3. Overall theme/allusions

4. Action items/what are people supposed to do with this knowledge/what can they change about it

5. Quotes and interviews to conduct

6. Graphics and pictures relevant to the story and worth using
