What we learned doing this assignment is that we had most of the information already compiled for this, but it was very helpful to make sure we had a scene arc that started in a specific place and then ended in a specific place. Also, to make sure we had that conflict and/or challenge built into the scene. I think this assures that everything flows well but also that we don’t have any scenes that aren’t serving a specific purpose.

Tom’s Scene Requirements
What I learned in this assignment was that I essentially did this work last assignment, apparently filling in more detail than the lesson required. Going through these steps though it did give me an opportunity to put a bit more structure and intention into the outline so I do feel like some aspects of it improved.
Concept: Nine people with seemingly nothing in common enter into a support group to help cope with loss during the pandemic, but discover they are the subjects of an extraterrestrial experiment to change the outcome of an upcoming political protest that starts a domino effect, leading to the end of democracy, and ultimately the extinction of mankind.
Inciting Incident: Florida Man attends his first support group meeting as ordered by court to avoid jail time, meeting the group that will ultimately be tasked with changing the trajectory of mankind to avoid extinction.
A Story: The group’s purpose to save mankind
B Story: Eddie, Twyla and the Janitor
C Story: The inter/intra-personal relationships of the group
