Act One Story Symposium
May 13, 2010
Yet another great resource for screen storytelling is the podcast weblog for the two-day Act One Story Symposium held in October of 2008 at the historic Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood.
From the site:
“This conference marked the beginning of Act One’s 10th anniversary year. For ten years Act One has been committed to training artists to tell stories which are deeply rooted in the Christian philosophical and moral traditions. For ten years we have relied on professionals within the entertainment industry to help shape our students and our curriculum. This symposium is an opportunity to take a look at the “big picture” and re-evaluate where Act One will go in the next ten years under the Hollywood sign.
Our theme for this symposium was “Story is something that happens to you.” We believe that the storyteller has a unique place within society and that their stories carry an immense amount of political and spiritual weight. Therefore the storyteller has a great calling, a vocation, to use character, dialogue and plot to effect a change in individuals and within the greater society.
It is our hope that we can use this Socratic discussion to reshape the way in which we perceive the storyteller, as a moral agent within a growing global audience.
The Socratic Method (or Method of Elenchus or Socratic Debate), named after the Classical Greek philosopher Socrates, is a form of philosophical inquiry in which the questioner explores the implications of others’ positions, to stimulate rational thinking and illuminate ideas. This dialectical method often involves an oppositional discussion in which the defense of one point of view is pitted against another; one participant may lead another to contradict himself in some way, strengthening the inquirer’s own point.”
