sw-premise-theme
Premise, theme, controlling idea, subject selection and logline for scripts (前提/主题/立意/选材/戏核) — merged from Lajos Egri's premise-as-tyrant and dialectic, Robert McKee's controlling idea (value + cause) and idea/counter-idea, Neill Hicks' five premise questions, Lisa Cron's "third rail" (desire vs misbelief, origin scene, what-if), Julian Hoxter's logline and theme-attitude rule, Blake Snyder's logline/genre/title tests, and Lu Jun's Chinese craft chapters on 选材要严/开掘要深/视角要新/戏核要好/情节要奇. Use when turning a vague idea into a premise, finding what a story is really about, choosing a subject and angle, testing a logline, deciding the ending from the theme, or diagnosing a script that "has events but no story".
