BEYOND THE DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL...
...IS THE EVOLUTION!
A story is a series of feelings moving us through change. But what are the feelings and what is the change? The response is in the Evolution.
Current industry tropes ask creatives to manufacture explosive Crisis scenes followed by much turmoil leading to acceptance or forgiveness - which gives way to hopeful endings with likeable, relatable characters. Enter the Dad plus hug = cry scene. The throwing over of tables and smashing of plates, drunken walking through streets, wars, all manners of fighting and breakups. Sure, these plot events can appeal - but when they are driven by conflict for conflicts sake, or by a series of notes creatives feel they must follow in order to get greenlit - the meaning hollows out and the project falls flat.
Is it any wonder audiences click away before the end?
Compelling stories have more to offer than what we've all seen a thousand times before.
The Evolution is the most necessary and least understood emotional beat of the Journey.
The Evolution unpacks how we move through the Crisis and engage, deeply invested, all the way through to the ending. It charges each character with meaningful internal actions in the face of unpredictable plot events. Worlds, lives, and relationships change. The Evolution calls in the raw, surprising, new truth - it requires us to engage with Meaning, whether we like it or not, or even know it or not!
