STRUCTURE, PACING AND TONE

SATURDAY SCHOOL - FULL DAY WORKSHOP

So you've built up the world of your story, populated it with unforgettable characters, given them exciting conflict, but how do you put all of that together? Do you start your story at the end and work backwards? Is your story covering different time periods or multiple locations? Do you have a bunch of exciting big action sequences and or is your story two people sitting in a room telling jokes to each other? These are questions that demand a writer to examine the Structure, Pacing and Tone of your story. Structure holds every scene together into a cohesive whole. Pacing determines how quickly or slowly your story unfolds and how to keep your audiences engaged throughout the journey. And Tone determines HOW your audience feels while they're watching: are they tense, scared, swooning, or doubled over in laughter. This workshop will help you learn the structural, pacing and tonal techniques to elevate your story from a, b, c to vavavooom!

Led by renowned Head Writer, Showunner and Executive Producer, Busisiwe Ntintili.
