About this listen
Prefer to watch episode on Youtube ?I don’t claim to have the definitive answer as to what ‘high concept’ really means. There are as many different definitions as there are people who attempt to explain the somewhat elusive, yet highly sought status of a genuinely easy-to-understand idea. How can it be genuine, if there is no one correct answer or defintiton? It’s one of those things that falls into the category of, ‘ I know it when I see it’ and ‘we can all agree’. In this short post I add my own two cents to the conversation on what it means for a story idea to be ‘high concept’.
If you have a different definition of ‘high concept’ hit me up in the comments. I’m eager to expand my own perspective on the subject.
