Dialogue Means Nothing- Character must be pre-occupied; eyes reveal what a person wants/needs
Keep the Story Simple- simplistic linear stories that audience can easily follow
Characters Must Break Cliche- make characters exact opposite of stereotypes
Use Humor to Add Tension- ironic situations for character; coincidence
Two Things Happening at Once- contrasting situations; two unrelated things together; audience focuses on one, the second usually being a humor gesture/dialogue
Suspense is Information- show audience what is to happen while the characters are unaware for it to happen
Surprise and Twist- never have an expected ending; lead towards one direction (ending) then "pull the rug out from under them"
Warning May Cause MacGuffin- random plot devices; builds dramatic tension
