Things I will have to look into :
- How will the facts be presented?
- How is the narrative going to work?
- Characters.
- Where will i set the narrative?
- Is the context to back up the information or narrative?
The Facts- As there is so much information out there, I will have to learn how to condense the facts into easy digestible bits of information for my audience to pick up on and how to weave them into the narrative. I will also have to look at how I wish to present these facts to the audience.
The Narrative - After sourcing the facts, I will than have to plan a short narrative based on my response to the facts. The narrative will have to hold the readers interest and transport them into this Alternate Bygone Era.
The Characters - With this narrative will come a host of characters that live and interact with each other. I want to audience to engage with the characters and feel like they can relate to them in some way, be that through the way they initially react to the facts themselves, morals or sense of humour etc. The characters will be presented with the facts and will explore and analyze them, delving into the events and possibly shedding some light on them.
Society/place/location - The society that the narrative will be based in will pay homage to the Victorian Era, with its staggering innovation and exploration, but will be a sort of alternate version of the Era, in which the supernatural elements of the period are very much real and living alongside the natural and scientific elements.
Context - Much of the narrative will be based on cases which attracted attention during the period and the myths and legends surrounding the period such as Spring Heeled Jack, The Jack The Ripper murders, the haunted house on Berkeley Square etc., as well as many popular trends and facts about society and culture of the period such as fashion, books and magazine, figure, politics and technology.
