What It’s Really About: Identifying Your Story’s Theme

Webinars ~ Craft Series

$34.00

We've all taken a stab at putting our script's theme into a simple explanation that makes someone else want to get on our story's ride. We've all heard how important a clear theme is, as it can make or break your reader's investment in what happens. After all, at the end of the day, the theme is what our story is really about. It’s what's going to still resonate with people long after the closing image. So it's vital you clearly and consistently communicate your theme throughout your script, while also making sure it matches the events of your story.

Seth Renshaw will be your guide through the sometimes murky waters of developing and identifying your story's theme! 

This 90-Min. Webinar Covers:

  • What is theme, really?
  • Why identifying your theme is essential to your story
  • “Universal Theme”
  • Tying your theme into the plot and characters
  • How to elicit empathy 
  • Why people go to the movies
Testimonials

Working with Seth on my script was a great experience. He was thoughtful, specific, and helped me rethink my approach to my story. As a result, my rewrite has a much stronger connection to the protagonist and her journey.
