Beginnings

     

      So, to get the elephant out of the room first, yes it's weird that I'm doing this after I did Conclusions. However, considering people usually think about the goal first, they usually think about how to get their later. The beginning step is still the first obstacle one needs to overcome however. It's not just having an idea and presenting it, it's making sure to start off right. How do we learn about these characters, or has this been done before? Well, let's find out here!

       Now, in terms of a first chapter or episode, you'll want to give a good first impression. Setting a theme for the show, having the characters show their personalities,  etc. Now, you might not have the best beginning,  but can still tell a great story going forward. Great, but don't forget to at least try with a first impression. Be it a chapter, small video, or season, put your best foot forward.

     When it comes to beginning a project though, It's a bit different.  It's not just having an idea, it's planning it out, testing with audiences, getting licenses, etc. Acto accordingly,  and get through the first part before doing anything else. Don't put the cart before the horse,  ambition is good, but keep it under control.

      So, there you have it. Plan your beginnings well, and make sure they go over well. You only get one chance at a first impression after all.
