Multi-character, multi-clue, skill learning in crowded independent space mode
Take the first season 01 and the second season 01 as an example.
How to write:
1. Determine the theme: The theme of the first episode is revenge, and the theme of the second episode is killing caused by competition. First, determining the theme should be the first step in each genre.
2. The clues should be orderly: multiple clues should be cross-written, the sequence should be interwoven in an orderly, rhythmic and organized manner, each clue should have a sense of rhythm, and attention should be paid to the succession and transformation. The rhythm control is the key point, every line is ensured to be composed of short beats, the clues are simple, and the story is twists and turns.
3. The language ability should be on the line: the character's ability to control should be outstanding, and the subtext and jokes should be added. The subtext is used to be profound, and the jokes are used to add small materials.
To elaborate, the clues should be in order:
Rebecca and Ian meet, and Ian introduces himself as a colleague of Rebecca's fiancé Jamie.
Rachel's ex-boyfriend breaks the conversation.
A1: Rebecca was called wrong the first time.
Rebecca's brother Carl joins to talk about dad taking a couple (Mark and Elizabeth) to the stables.
A2: Stuart, Carl's gay man, entered, introduced the toilet space, and led out Stinky John through dialogue, who was a classmate back then.
A3: The old nanny Giortini.
A1: Rachel went into the closet and chatted with Ian about the wrong name.
A2: Mention Stinky John again and join the game.
A3: Stewart goes to the toilet and meets Giortini.
A1: Ian proposes to return to the original position, and Jody and Rachel chat, misidentifying the bride again.
A4: Jotini brought up the secret of the room, which was always locked before.
A3: It was mentioned that Rachel's boyfriend Li asked the nanny to pour the wine.
A5: Mark and Elizabeth entered the room to talk about a plot.
A1: Mark mispronounced Rebecca's name again.
A3: Rachel's boyfriend Li enters and asks the nanny to pour the wine.
A4: Jotini revealed that the family actually has three children.
Lee and Stewart hid under the bed. Ian hides in the toilet.
A5: Stewart and Carl quarreled, and Carl said you didn't know what happened in the house that prevented you from being intimate with others.
A2: Stink John enters, (series of beats: Don't let Stink John enter: 1. Go outside under the bed. 2. The door won't open. 3. Enter.)
A1: Fiance Jamie entered and called the wrong wife's name again. Rebecca realized what her fiance loved. Father entered, united everyone into the cabinet,
A2: (beat) 4. To avoid the smell of Stinky John, everyone shared chewing gum.
A5: Mark approached Rebecca's father Andrew. Andrew said that he had long stopped contacting people who could help Mark, and Mark's plan to use others was broken.
A4: Rebecca brought up the story of playing this game when she was a child, but was interrupted by her brother. The nanny recalled that someone had accused Andrew of sexually assaulting Philip Harrison, the boy. The elder brother pointed out that he and John had also been insulted. Stewart suggested that everyone was in the cabinet, while Lee suggested that Ian was not there. At this time, Jamie said that his colleague Ian was not. The man in the closet.
Philip Harrison (Ian impostor) locks the cabinet, lights up and sings.
We can see that things are constantly being revealed: 1. The incident when the father was accused of sexually assaulting Philip Harrison happened in this room. 2. One of my brother and Stinky John is gay, and the reason for his stink is also sexually assaulted by his father. 3. The identity of the person who is not in the cabinet is doubtful. 4. The person with suspicious identity outside is the victim boy Harrison. In this section, the green and yellow secrets are revealed and reversed. This is a big outbreak of the event, and the previous clues are unfolded and reversed through the disclosure.
(Emma, study hard, Su Xiaoan, the above clues are A1, A2, A3. If you want to braid in this way, you must expose or break it.)
Normal narrative clues:
Clue 1: The story of always being called the wrong name Rebecca.
Clue 2: Stinky John. One day started not taking baths - something happened to this room, locked - three siblings - brother who couldn't be intimate. After the father entered, the song of the icebreaker was rudely interrupted by the elder brother - everyone recalled that the missing boy revealed that John did not take a bath, and the elder brother did not get close.
Clue 3: Jotini, mistakenly thought she was the guest's maid. The first time I was called wrong by Richard - the nanny - I introduced myself why I was called wrong - the upper management was called wrong - even my boyfriend was wrong.
Clue 4: Mark and Elizabeth, discussing plots, having sex, and being broken.
The language style should be firm:
In general, people do not have illustrative actions to bring characters in crowded spaces, and they have to rely on language design to bring them.
For example, Season 1 01:
Stewart: Always citing scriptures, talking about movies, and speaking with color.
Ian: On the surface, it's a cold joke, but it's actually full of subtext.
Giortini: Tucao, reveal the truth.
Therefore, after determining the theme:
Multiple clues are laid out + good character and character relationship shaping + each clue has its own beat + the flip of the revealing theme = multiple characters, multiple clues, independent space mode.
Season 2 02:
Theme: Murder by competition.
Characters: Relying on the illustrative action belt, this space is larger than the first season 01, so when constructing characters, illustrative actions can be included, and this time is a test of skill, and small details need to be used to express the observation of life (such as Alarm clock, zipper, spitting, these are small details)
Summary beat:
A1: Medical elites stay in private rooms.
A2: The homeless entered.
A3: The husband and wife entered, and the husband found that someone was sleeping in the bed, so the husband and wife slept together.
A4: The fat woman Xue Na goes in and out.
A3: The couple couldn't sleep, so they let the homeless man go back to his place.
A1: Elite introduction test.
A4: Xue Na brought back the man with the gun and found the body.
A1: Elite called the police, but went out to find the police to no avail.
A2: The homeless person looked at the passport of the deceased and proposed to smash the emergency stop button.
A4: The man with the gun told his secret that he was not in first class, but he did not buy a ticket.
A1: Elite proposed that he would have an important interview tomorrow.
A3: The husband and wife remembered that they were going to attend their daughter's wedding. The husband persuaded the wife. The wife was a little desperate for humanity.
A2: The homeless woman gave a eulogy for the dead body, and everyone went to sleep.
A1: The husband chatted with the elite, and the elite talked about the importance of the interview.
A3: The train stopped suddenly and the husband found his wife missing.
A2: The homeless person has a stomachache and pulls the feces into the shoes.
A3: The husband and the elite quarreled. Everyone mistakenly thought that the wife committed suicide by lying on the rails. In the end, it was found that a doe was hit and the wife returned. It turned out to be a misunderstanding. The husband and wife agreed that they would go to the funeral after the wedding.
A4: Xue Na has reconciled with the man with the gun.
A1: The elite said that he would report the case, the elite answered the phone, and the other party said that the only competitor of the elite was also in this car, revealing that the elite killed the competitor. At this time, the homeless person finished washing up and dressed in the elite. It turned out that he was the competitor of the elite. , and the tramp slept in the wrong place last night...
Character relationship: The protagonist elite is used to string together, and each person who enters the box will have a dialogue and conflict with the elite in turn.
Cue beat: can see the color label. (This is where you can see the importance of each thread's succession and transformation )
Old couple: change positions with minor twists and turns, quarrel over dead bodies, mistakenly think that his wife committed suicide, and reconcile.
Xue Na and the man with the gun: Start dating, meet the dead body, discover the man's lie, and finally reconcile.
Elite male: At first, he wanted to fall asleep because he was afraid of delaying the interview tomorrow. Then he took the initiative to call the police and pretended to go out to find the police. When he came back, he persuaded everyone not to press the temporary stop button. Before leaving, he said that he would be responsible for reporting the crime.
Homeless: A nasty series of moves, sleeping in the wrong bed, pooping in the car, and finally washing up, turns out to be an elite competitor.
You can see that the yellow of the tramp is the least, and this is the part that the author wrote implicitly, the narrative trick.
Other TIPS:
Inversion: By starting the laying of the theme.
Other tips: Details drive characters.
