After receiving our plot outline back, there are a few things our instructor said we needed to adjust. For starters, our narrative needs to be more mysterious, and can’t tell a full story. We will tweak it so that there are more elements left out for the viewers to interpret however they please. Our instructor also advised us to be careful with our props, which is why we made sure to have our main character’s room decorated with paintings and drawings. By doing this, we are helping the viewers learn more about the main character’s personality without having to directly state it in dialogue. Another thing that was brought to our attention was to be specific with colors, which we made sure to make use of in the artist’s artwork to guide the story further without obvious dialogue. We made sure to use elements beyond dialogue to further develop and convey our story.
