Making your Short Film Idea Personal: An Idea Generation Workshop
How do I come up with good, impactful ideas for a short film? Many short film ideas, while well-intentioned, may come across as redundant, and tend to borrow from old or previously successful concepts that have already been used. But great films are made from stories that are original, unique, and intensely personal, the story that no one else can tell. This workshop leads you through first uncovering your personal themes, and then how you can use your personal theme to infuse your work with specificity, originality, and emotional impact.
Through a series of brainstorming exercises, author Rae Shaw uses techniques from her recent book The Short to help new and old writers, reap the benefits of telling their personal stories.
