I went in early to the RSAMD thinking that screenwriting class was on. I was mistaken, Richard my lecturer said we won't be at his class for three weeks. I mis interpreted and thought it was two. I learned a lesson, listen to information diligently and check for timetable updates. 

In the afternoon it was content origination with Adam. We learned about story lining meaning taking a character (say in a drama) and what he is going to be doing the following episodes.

We watched the pilot of' "The West Wing", and took part in an exercise afterwards. We were split into groups and given a character in the episode, we then had to look at this character and predict what  was going to happen to them as the series continued. I learned that when a character personality is introduced  the personality will be the same and continue throughout the story.
