This video explains how to create meaningful plot points in a story by connecting them to the underlying structure of the narrative, specifically using the Dramatica theory of story. The speaker demonstrates how to use the Subtxt platform to generate story forms and then develop plot points that are driven by the story's core problem, leading to a more cohesive and purposeful narrative. The video walks through creating a cosmic horror story example, illustrating how different story problems (like "reaction" or "proven") can influence the plot and its resolution.
