Description
We think of a story as a form that takes some time to fully explain and develop all the characters and plot lines. But in today’s world we’re seeing that’s not always the case. How much time does it take to tell a story? 30 minutes? 1 minute? 5 seconds? The answer is “all of the above.” Drawing on Pete’s 50+ years of experience as a senior editor at WFTV, ABC, Universal and Disney, this class will illustrate that short can be beautiful, engaging, complete and powerful.
