Here are the tips that should come handy to you while writing a story in PPDT:
- You are given 30 seconds to see a picture. Utilize the time to frame the context in which you story will lay and how your hero will survive.
- Define a title for the given picture. Remember that title should be such which tells the complete essence of your story and is catchy. So design the title carefully.
- Create a hero/heroine from the characters seen in the picture and make him/her the main central character of the story to build.
- Now the main work of writing the story starts where it is expected that the aspirant will describe the following:
- Number of Characters;
- Their age(s) and sex;
- Mood(s);
- What has probably happened;
- What is currently happening;
- Future action to be taken;
- Final Outcome.
- Keep the story short and meaningful and clear from inconclusiveness, so that it covers the past, present and future aspects of the story.
- Do not write memorized stories or always relate it to defence. Be you and be spontaneous.
- Practice as much as possible. Refer these pics to practice writing the stories.
Hope these tips will help you write the best story for the PPDT.
