crime-scene-writing

Please read very carefully the first two files that I have upload.

This include two draft.

Draft 1: Start your excerpt with the crime scene itself. Your approach should be “like a fly on a wall.” In other words, just describe scene itself, absent of any people. Do not mention the lead detective or describe his examination of the crime scene.

Your Goals: 1) Bring the crime scene to life for the reader. 2) Help the reader see Louisa Sutton as a real person. Try to convey some of her personality or character through her belongings 3) Get the reader emotionally engaged. Try to engender an emotional response or connection.

Draft 2:(Use a different color to add on the Draft 1)

Keep your focus completely on the office/crime scene. You will just describe the scene itself, absent of any people. Do not mention the lead detective or describe his or her examination of the crime scene.

“Raw Material” to Work With: the crime scene evidence, the office décor, Louisa Sutton’s personal items.

Goals: 1) Bring the crime scene to life for the reader. Let them vividly see the evidence. (As a journalist you would use the detective’s report and crime scene photos as your raw materials.)

2) Help the reader see Louisa Sutton as a real person. Try to convey some of her personality or character through her belongings. Suggest what was going on her life. (In addition to the already mentioned materials, you’ll use the Office Décor List and the additional Journalist photographs of her belongings.) 3) Try to engender an emotional response or connection. Think of specific emotions that you want the reader to feel, and in what ways they might identify with Sutton. (Same raw materials as above.)

Again, pls ready carefully.
