Essay

The main rules of producing a good story are always to have a brilliant plot or a pitch that explains the whole story together. Without this strong device the story wouldn’t become very interesting because a strong plot always links into other situations that can come across during a story that can create unexpected moments and also has affection to the audience that creates emotions for them. There are always many other important components which links into producing a good story.

A story always contains three sections which in the beginning always present the set up and equilibrium. This presents the relationship between the main character and the other people who inhabit their landscape of their world to be established. In simple terms This obviously presents the characteristics of the main character and how they are involved with the main story so for example the little red riding hood is the main character who comes across as an innocent girl lives in a  cottage with her parent and being sent to provide her gift to her grandmother.

The 2nd part of preplanning a story always consist a confrontation and disruption. This is where the main characters encounter an obstacle that keeps them from achieving their dramatic end. In simple terms this explains how the character may come across a lot of situation that creates a lot of systematic drama scenes. For example The slave saving the lion obviously comes across where the lion will not attack the slave therefore links into another drama scene where the master forgives the slaves and obviously doesn’t become slaughter if this was the case then it would of encountered where the slave wouldn’t become demolished by the lion if he would never of saved it therefore either any scenario cases that may occur between the lion and the man could create a disruption.

The last part of preplanning a story always contains a resolution where a new equilibrium is produced and presents how a new set up has comes across. In simple terms this explains that after the ending has comes across every characters are changed into their set up for example after the grandmother was eaten by the wolf her set up changes where she is more protective of locking her house and becoming safe, The little red riding hood now becomes protective over her grandmother and learns to never talk to strangers, The wolf learns to never come across the woodcutter and also the wood cutter learns to always destroy any wolf that tries to eat someone. Overall the planning strategy always present of how whenever a story is written it must be changed and the characters must develop that explains why every plot links into another situation.


Apart from preplanning the story into 3 section there are components in which is compulsory to use to produce an effective story. Logical causality is also a component where a story contains a series of interconnected event sthat always leads to a resolution and the reason why its important to include this to every story that are being produced is because usually story causes things to happen that are in order to make the actually story sense, if it doesn’t occur then the audience will be confused and the story would not make any sense at all. For example a story presents where a slave meets a lion and saves the lion and the master misses the slave as he escapes. This doesn’t make any sense to present why did the slave escape the master if he was so generous and very polite to him and also where does the freedom become an involvement where he meets the lion, therefore the story doesn’t make any sense and its also not very expandable. Overall a story always needs to include empathy which effects the audiences feeling about the characters for example the wolf could have feelings for the audience to actually get rid of him and know what’s going to happen to the wolf in the future. A story always needs tension in which creates a scenario for the audience to question ‘What’s going to happen next?’ Finally a story always contains an element of surprise that always present an interesting image of the story.
