# Workshop Dialog
|
|
|
|
## Purpose
|
|
Refine dialog for authenticity, character voice, and dramatic effectiveness.
|
|
|
|
## Process
|
|
|
|
### 1. Voice Audit
|
|
For each character, assess:
|
|
- Vocabulary level and word choice
|
|
- Sentence structure preferences
|
|
- Speech rhythms and patterns
|
|
- Catchphrases or verbal tics
|
|
- Educational/cultural markers
|
|
- Emotional expression style
|
|
|
|
### 2. Subtext Analysis
|
|
For each exchange:
|
|
- What's being said directly
|
|
- What's really being communicated
|
|
- Power dynamics at play
|
|
- Emotional undercurrents
|
|
- Character objectives
|
|
- Obstacles to directness
|
|
|
|
### 3. Flow Enhancement
|
|
- Remove unnecessary dialogue tags
|
|
- Vary attribution methods
|
|
- Add action beats
|
|
- Incorporate silence/pauses
|
|
- Balance dialog with narrative
|
|
- Ensure natural interruptions
|
|
### 4. Conflict Injection
|
|
Where dialog lacks tension:
|
|
- Add opposing goals
|
|
- Insert misunderstandings
|
|
- Create subtext conflicts
|
|
- Use indirect responses
|
|
- Build through escalation
|
|
- Add environmental pressure
|
|
|
|
### 5. Polish Pass
|
|
- Read aloud for rhythm
|
|
- Check period authenticity
|
|
- Verify character consistency
|
|
- Eliminate on-the-nose dialog
|
|
- Strengthen opening/closing lines
|
|
- Add distinctive character markers
|
|
|
|
## Output
|
|
Refined dialog with stronger voices and dramatic impact |
