현재 주요 작업중인 “암실 속의 대화” 외에 진행되고 있는 습작들.
아이디어가 마구 떠올라서 담아두기 보다는, 가장 촛점을 맞추고 있는 “암실 속의 대화“에서 특정 소재가 어설프게 다뤄지는 바람에 주제가 흐트려지는 것을 방지할 목적으로 아예 과감하게 솎아내면서 발전될 가능성이 보이는 것들의 모음.
Hitchhiker’s guide to marriage
William T. Price Proposition
- What is the main action about?
- The middle of the plot must contain an occurrence that in some way leads logically to the end of the plot.
- The beginning of the plot contains an occurrence which forms the root of this middle action.
This translates to…
- the condition of the action is the first significant event of the play, the event which holds the root of the cause of the action.
- the cause of the action is the event which follows from the condition of the action, and which raises a question which the rest of the play must answer.
- the resulting action will answer the question raised by the cause of the action, the question which is the chief business of the plot.
Why focus on event?
- The condition of the action cannot be a situation; it must be an event. A situation is static.
- Condition must describe only what happens in the play. A situation existed before the beginning of the plot of this play and thus, is useless.
The proposition always deals with events in which both the central and second characters are concerned. To ensure this of happening, one must get in the habit of putting the central character as the subject of the sentences.
