Dramatica Flash Cards

If you use the Studies app on iOS or Mac OS, I’ve created flashcards to help you memorize quads of classes, types and variations. Elements coming soon.

I’ve given it an extension of .pdf so that the board would let me upload it. Just delete that extension so that the file has a .studies extension. The file is NOT a pdf. It is a Studies app archive.

I don’t know how @chuntley would feel about putting out flash cards with the Dramatica definitions on them. If he says it’s okay, I’ll do it for the community at some point. If not, you can do a cut and paste using the Studies app.

Here’s how I’m using them, including “definitions” cards. You can all see how bad my memory is :slight_smile:

hmmm not sure the board is supporting my movie. You can open the link in your browser:

Here’s an update of my Dramatica Flash Cards for the iOS / Mac OS Studies app. Hope they’re useful. I’m dropping them here as a Dropbox link.

They are a work in progress. I’m thinking now about how to do Elements quads, as distorted and influenced by the 4 Class Towers. I’m finding I’m using them in two ways. To memorize, sure; but also to ‘set my mind in Dramatica mode’ as I sit down to storymake. I’m finding it helps me to develop an individual understanding of the quads, instead of as a Big Blur of Quads. I’m forced to confront them one at a time by flipping through the decks. I’ve never been a big flash card user so I am finding this out a bit late in life :slight_smile: but what the hey.

Many more sketches of structure coming. All complicated theories are confusing at first. That’s why we make sketches. Dramatica is very complicated, but it’s not incomprehensible.
