For many writers, the ending of a script brings up all sorts of worries and concerns. It felt easy to kick off your script, you’re deep into following the characters and their obstacles… but you become confused and indecisive about how to resolve everything. The key is often to zoom out and ask big questions about what story you’ve been trying to tell in the first place. In this session, Brian Mullin will dig into what endings really do, how the last scenes and moments of a script affect us and what they mean for our characters. It’s a perfect choice for those lost in the middle of their script — or anyone who wants to deep dive into how stories function.
Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how endings function in a narrative and offer techniques to help writers effectively conclude their own scripts-in-progress.
