Learn the sorcery that attunes you to your group's energy, molding its ebb and flow with intent.
Ever find yourself scrambling to hit the gas, or notice that something is getting stale, but you just can't tell what? Well, this episode is packed with techniques that will keep everyone on the edge of their seats. The wisdom comes from the experience of our incredible guest Roz Young, the masterful storyteller of Ready to Roll, a boundary-pushing actual play YouTube series.
In the Strategy Stateroom we explore two major steps to improve pacing. The first is to think in acts, and helps prepare for a consistently engaging adventure. The second is to think in scenes, and Roz shares all kinds of perspective shifts from her varied fields of expertise that helps keep every moment feeling unrestrained, yet on track.
Then we go to the Heroes Stage to learn more about Ready to Roll and what makes it extraordinary, from their rich world, to their cast of actors, to their vignettes, where they recreate key scenes from the game with an entire team of professional filmmakers. We're talking beautifully detailed sets and fully imagined costumes here. You'll think you're watching a movie.
