Task
For todays task we got set lunchtime homework to come up with a short story making use of a technique we'd been taught called "on the nose" and "off the nose"
To give an example of how this would be used in a screenplay, here are some examples below:
On the nose: someone saying i hate you.
Off the nose: someone saying i hate you without saying it i.e. through actions and emotions.
The homework we got set was a scene exercise to create a story using this technique. Below is the story i created
How this helped me?
This technique has definitely helped me in regards to telling a story better where i never knew of this method before. I might of used this method without knowing before, but now i know how to use it confidently when telling a story/screen writing
