My name is Emily Schultheis; I am currently a junior at GHS.  I have benefited from three consecutive years of the Independent Research/Mentorship Programs.  In previous years, I dedicated much of my creative energy to scientific research, particularly robotics and optical engineering.  

 

From an intense study of the traditional sciences, I hoped to develop an understanding and appreciation for the scientific element and thought process.  I have now decided to explore a different and equally compelling aspect of human ingenuity: artistic expression – in the context of this research I will explore the ideal design of modern story.

These data support the conclusion that The Story Template is an accurate tool to predict classic and non-classic stories.
 
The Story Template algorithm was able to correctly detect both classic and non-classic stories as determined by objective/historical criteria. In this small sample of ten movies, The Story Template was able to correctly categorize nine stories, giving a final accuracy score of 90%.
 
The Story Template is an algorithm that was developed to assist a writer in creating a complete, compelling story. In this series of experiments, 16 separate components of The Story Template were identified. Interestingly, 15 of these 16 components was always present in both classic and non-classic stories. The presence or absence of only one component determined the template’s classification of a classic or non-classic story.
