Outlining stories
Outlining StoriesWhen 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
