(05-28-2020, 02:43 PM)The Jester Said: I thought that your rp was great overall. I loved the story and I thought the idea of using actors to recreate the scenes from your characters life was very creative. If I could just offer a little advice, when you’re narrating (setting up the scene, describing a location, explaining what your character or someone else is doing in a scene) it works better if you do it in 3rd person instead of 1st. For example, here’s the first few sentences from your rp if they were done in 3rd person.

The scene opens to a small metal folding chair sitting against a plain white backdrop. The camera zoomed tightly to the chair before Liam can be seen walking into the frame. He turns to the camera and gives it a little wave before sitting down. He sits there in silence for a few moments, taking a few deep breaths, before beginning to speak.

The thing about 1st person narration as opposed to 3rd person, is that it is often used in novels [especially young adult books] to show how the primary character feels about their story. That's why I've often used 1st person, over my 19 or so year journey in fedding. The 3rd person does sometimes help people follow along easier, but changing the narrative as u did does take away some of the personal emotion in the piece, and i personally think it might have taken away from liam's ineraction and feeling of his dad. hope this makes sense, and liam -- best of luck at War Games!!!! ^_^

'...what happens when the joke dies...'

Quote:When I was a little girl, my mother spoke of a prophecy, of a time when all the world would be covered in darkness and the fate of mankind would be decided. One night I finally got the courage to ask my mother, why God was so mad at His children.

'I don't know,' she said, tucking the covers around me, 'I guess He just got tired of all the bullshit'
