Building stories - story starters

When looking at a photo, sometimes, you get an idea of a story.


BEFORE - what happened to get this situation like we see it? 
- one great approach - put a character into the situation

2.   AFTER

what situation is this photo (or the action in it) going to create? 
WHAT MAKES SENSE? LOGIC!

3. What’s happening now? 

the photo is confusing and it takes some thinking to figure out what you’re seeing
you need to take in ALL the details and think about what they mean when they’re all put together

4. What about all these feelings? 

you look at a photo and you think about the feelings that the characters/subjects have


5. What about MY feelings? 


- writing about YOUR OWN response to a photo - what you think, what the photo makes YOU feel
