Tutorial Overview

Use AI collaboration to develop a scene from concept to polished draft.

Exercise 1: Brainstorming with AI

Start with a concept:

"I want to write a scene where two business partners have a disagreement about company direction. Help me brainstorm interesting angles."

AI suggests approaches. Choose one.

Exercise 2: Outline the Scene

Request:

"Create a beat-by-beat outline for this scene. 3-4 beats, building tension to disagreement, ending with unresolved conflict."

Review outline, approve or revise.

Exercise 3: Draft with AI

"Write the first beat: Partners arrive at coffee shop, casual greeting, underlying tension."

Review what AI writes. Refine:

"Make the dialogue more subtle. Show tension through pauses and what's unsaid."

Exercise 4: Enhance Dialogue

Take a draft line and improve it:

"Make this dialogue more natural: [paste your dialogue]"

Exercise 5: Polish Final Draft

Request final improvements:

"Review this scene for pacing, dialogue rhythm, and visual storytelling. Suggest specific improvements."

Workflow Pattern

  1. Concept → Brainstorm with AI
