I have been reading about what what makes a good scene. I have come across two different sites and two different examples of what a scene should be made of.
Site # 1
A full scene is made of the scene and its sequel:
Scene:
1. Scene goal - what the mc wants
2. Conflict - obstacle in the way of mc obtaining goal
3. Disaster/outcome - build-up to next scene
Sequel:
1. Reaction - to what happened above
2. Dilmma = What do I do now?
3, Decision - Makes a plan and acts on it
The next scene starts.
Site # 2:
Says each scene is a mini-story within the story as a whole and should contain a touch of the following:
1. Exposition - introduce character, world tone & set up inciting incident - with no major changes
2. Inciting incident - kick-off scene
3. Rising complications - conflict
4. Crisis - Decision or choice - must make one
5. Climax - Outcome
6. Denouemnt - set-up for next scene- close of scene
Are these technically the same? Should I combine them?
The following section applies to this forum item as a whole,
not this individual post.
