Drama
Drama is fiction intended to be performed by actors on stage and interpreted by directors. It aims to create tension that engages the audience and tells an intense story in a short period of time. Like fiction, drama tells a story of human change through a protagonist struggling against an antagonist. However, in drama the story is brought to life through actors, props, costumes and dialogue rather than just words on a page. Plays must externalize characters' thoughts, limit settings to what can be portrayed on stage, and use stage directions and dialogue rather than just narration to move the story forward in a focused and intense way over a continuous live performance.
How to write a story.
The document provides tips for writing a story, including introducing the background and main characters, describing how the story develops through different stages, and concluding with what happened at the end. It recommends planning the story elements before writing and using techniques like an engaging introduction, separate paragraphs for stages, and correct verb tenses and linking words to improve the narrative flow.
DESCRIPTIVE AND NARRATIVE WRITING
Descriptive writing uses vivid language to help readers visualize people, places, or events by appealing to the five senses. It is often used in menus, travel brochures, and posters to make the topic more interesting. Narrative writing tells a story through elements like plot, characters, setting, theme, and point of view, and can be seen in novels, short stories, biographies, autobiographies, historical accounts, poems, and plays. The document provides an overview of descriptive and narrative writing styles.
Narrative Notes 2
The document provides guidance on using descriptive language and figurative language techniques when writing narratives. It recommends using precise words, sensory details, metaphor, simile, personification, imagery, and hyperbole. It also suggests avoiding abstract language and generalizations, and including figurative language to strengthen descriptions. An example is given of rewriting sentences more descriptively using various figurative language devices.
How to write dialogue in a story teacher's notes
This document provides guidance on writing dialogue in stories. It discusses keeping dialogue concise yet insightful into characters, using word choice to reveal traits, and creating tension through unsaid feelings. Formatting tips include placing punctuation inside quotations, using tags sparingly, and starting a new paragraph each time the speaker changes to help readers follow the conversation. Overall, the document emphasizes using dialogue to advance the plot and develop characters rather than just convey information.
Audio script writing guide
This document provides guidelines for writing effective audio scripts. Key points include: (1) Write simply for the ear, not the eye. Listeners hear it once unless they replay. (2) Use clear, concise, and ordered information. Write conversationally to sound natural. (3) Review scripts out loud to ensure they flow well and make sense. Well-written scripts can help organize ideas and engage listeners effectively.
How to write a horror story
To write an effective horror story, one should first get an idea for the plot by considering what happened, when, and who was involved. They should then plan out the details of the setting, characters, and action. It's important to think creatively and avoid cliches. The first sentence should grab readers' attention and make them want to keep reading. Descriptive horror scenes and a bit of gore can be used to scare and disgust readers. The ending should leave them shaken and looking over their shoulders.

Volume and Posture Guidelines
