Aim: Peer support

Last week, you wrote a scene where two characters meet each other and should have your seven turning points.

As you read:

1. Who is the main character? What is his/her goal? What is his/her obstacle?
2. Describe the main characters’ characteristics
3. What is the theme, as far as you can tell? How do you know this?
4. Do each of the main turning points seem to change the direction of the plot or invest the character/audience deeper into the plot? If yes, how so, if no, what needs to change?
5. Is this a film you think would draw an audience’s interest? Why or why not? 

After you read and answer the questions thoroughly above, get back with your partner and discuss your input. If there is time, we will do an additional switch
