“A good point of attack is where something vital is at stake at the very beginning of the play." - The Art of Dramatic Writing by Lajos Egri.

Why is this such great advice for an opening scene?

[Kyle Siemens @KyleSiemens]

I'm working on a horror feature now. The first scene needs to hook viewers/readers. It's gotta make them say 'what the hell' and force them to figure out what the hell indeed is going on.
Otherwise they'll walk away.

@ZGPope This sounds exciting! What does the job consist of? Are you excited about it?

[Kyle Siemens @KyleSiemens]

@terrystories This is awesome. I love this breakdown Terry, thanks for putting it together. Also, super impressive piece of work.
