Storyboard Text
- EXPOSITION
- CONFLICT
- RISING ACTION
- the literary plot diagram is the introduction to a story. In many stories, this is where the author exposes the reader to the important elements of the "set up" or background of the story such as the major characters' names, setting, and mood. In a good story, the exposition generally includes introducing the reader to the main and supporting characters as well as where and when the story takes place. The exposition shows how this introduction "sets the stage" and gives the reader the story idea.
- CLIMAX
- the primary problem that drives the story. The conflict may also be called the inciting incident and it is the principal goal for the protagonist or main character to achieve. In a common story structure, the conflict is usually revealed as a problem the main character must solve or an obstacle they need to overcome in order to reach their goal. Both the Exposition and the Conflict are considered part of the Beginning of the story.
- FALLING ACTION
- the story consists of all of the events that lead to the eventual climax of the story. The rising action includes the events in which the character attempts to solve the primary conflict of the story. The events broaden the character's development and are notable in the way they create suspense, increased emotion and tension in the story. The rising action is the bulk of the middle of the story.
- RESOLUTION
- The climax is often the most exciting point of the story or a series of exciting events. The climax in the chart is at the peak of the mountain. This is the moment or moments where there is a marked turning point for the story or the goals of the main character. This may include a major revelation, the overcoming of an obstacle or the character's main problem is resolved. The climax concludes the middle of the story.
- is the beginning of the end. It includes all of the events and everything that happens as a result of the climax, including wrapping-up of main points, questions being answered, and character development. The falling action are all of the events after the turning point that lead the reader to the end or resolution of the story. These events are usually more relaxed and notably decreasing in tension as the story makes its way towards its conclusion.
