Characters
Assignment due September 12.
Create a main character, with a full description of how they look, origin, wants, goals and needs. Create their enemy and ally. Place them in an opening scene. Describe the place, time, weather and environment. Write the beginning of a great story.
Want: The thing they desire more than anything else. This motivation moves the story forward. There should be obstacles that get in the way and stakes that are important. Punishment if they fail to meet their goal.
Need: The inner struggle. The thing they must achieve to attain their want. Often the obstacle to achieve the need is the character themselves.
Lie: The belief about themselves or the world that is wrong or misguided.
Ghost: A traumatic event from the past that shapes their world view now.
Make your character empathetic!
What is their handicap? They want something but the lie is holding them back. Their journey takes them from being reactive to proactive, confronting their ghost to achieve their ultimate need, and maybe what they want.

Hello Students!
We need to get to know each other and the best way is by making a video presentation.
Record yourself stating your name, where you are from, what is your family like, and tell us a story that the class may find interesting.
Content
In publishing, art, and communication, content is the information and experiences that are directed toward an end-user or audience.
Content is "something that is to be expressed through some medium, as speech, writing or any of various arts".
Content can be delivered via many different media including the Internet, cinema, television, radio, smartphones, audio CDs, books, e-books, magazines, and live events, such as speeches, conferences, and stage performances.
Marshall McLuhan famously coined the phrase, "The medium is the message." In the case of content, the channel through which information is delivered, the "medium", affects how the end user perceives content, the "message". Another important thing about content, especially when it comes to professional content writing, is the value that you deliver. Unless your content is useful to the readers, it is not going to be useful to you or your brand.
Focus: Who is watching? Who is the audience?
Your perspective is the way you see something. If you think that toys corrupt children's minds, then from your perspective a toy shop is an evil place. Perspective has a Latin root meaning "look through" or "perceive," and all the meanings of perspective have something to do with looking.
Point of view.
