It's never been more important to a writer's survival to learn to create in other mediums.

You know the basics of storytelling. You’ve mastered the art of imbuing the Who with specific needs and desires. You’re expert at the art of structuring the What with conflict and reversals. You’re old hat at using verisimilitude to fill out the Where and interrogating the spectrum of ethics for the Why. 

But what about the How? 

Author, comic writer and screenwriter Joshua Corin will help you determine what medium is the best fit for your story? Is it a play? A screenplay? A TV show? If it’s best told using narrative prose, should it be a short story? A novel? Somewhere in between? 

We'll go over the specific strengths and weaknesses of each medium, using successful (and less-than-successful) examples to highlight the importance of marrying the right content to the right form, as well as the additions and sacrifices required for adapting a story from one medium to another. 

This presentation will cover:

• The universal components all stories must have
• The specific components each medium requires
• How to meet (and subvert) reader/audience expectations of that medium
• How to adapt a story from one medium to another 
• Many examples to guide us along the way
• Q&A
