Liz shares her methods for attacking long-form to create a fulfilling long-form every time. When a long-form works, the ensemble is connected, callbacks happen seamlessly, connections are unforced, and theme emerges with subtle clarity. It’s a fantastic feeling. When a long-form doesn’t work, the ensemble feels disconnected, clunky, and everyone feels stuck in mud…inevitably someone in the group attempts to ‘save’ the piece, heroically…usually making things worse. It’s a miserable feeling. We’ll examine the strongholds and pitfalls of long-form, what to do when you’re discouraged, and how to stay inspired throughout.
