  1. scenarios

    In the performing arts, a scenario (, US also ; Italian: [ʃeˈnaːrjo]; from Italian scenario 'that which is pinned to the scenery') is a synoptical collage of an event or series of actions and events. In the commedia dell'arte, it was an outline of entrances, exits, and action describing the plot of a play, and was literally pinned to the back of the scenery. It is also known as canovaccio or "that which is pinned to the canvas" of which the scenery was constructed. Surviving scenarios from the Renaissance contain little other than character names, brief descriptions of action, and references to specific lazzi with no further explanation. It is believed that a scenario formed the basis for a fully improvisational performance, though it is also likely that they were simple reminders of the plot for those members of the cast who were literate. Modern commedia troupes most often make use of a script with varying degrees of additional improvisation. In the creation of an opera or ballet, a scenario is often developed initially to indicate how the original source, if any, is to be adapted and to summarize the aspects of character, staging, plot, etc. that can be expanded later in a fully developed libretto, or script. This sketch can be helpful in "pitching" the idea to a prospective producer, director or composer. In the filmmaking of the early 20th century, film scenarios (also called "treatments" or "synopses") were short written scripts to provide narrative coherence that had previously been improvised. They could consist of a simple list of scene headings or scene headings with a detailed explication of the action in each scene. At this time in the silent era, scripts had yet to include individual shots or dialogue. These scenario scripts evolved into lengthier continuity scripts, which listed a number of shots within each scene, thus providing continuity to streamline the filmmaking process.

Examples of scenarios in a Sentence

  1. Chris Smith:

    The scenarios that we investigate in this study are really at the extreme optimistic end of what could be done without negative emissions or killing off power plants or cars before their time, while the solution we propose is technically possible, it still doesn't look particularly likely. However, I would claim that mapping it out is a good starting point, and consistent with the definition of an infrastructure commitment. It would be interesting to see if, or how, some of The Results change with perhaps more real-world assumptions.

  2. Mark Carney:

    It will pass, the medical situation will pass. With time there will be a vaccine, the spread of the virus will be arrested. We don't know exactly what that period of time is, nor do the expert epidemiologists, they talk in terms of scenarios and probabilities, quite rightly so, we have the resilience in the system that has been built up over a decade that can withstand all of those scenarios.

  3. Ana Cascão:

    The filling of the GERD is just the most critical issue for the three countries to decide upon, and now, ahead of the first filling, a fair and equitable filling strategy must take into account different scenarios on climate and rainfall variability – if it will be one of drought, then the three countries are ready to agree on a slower filling.

  4. Jake Gibb:

    Age is an advantage, so much of our game is pattern recognition. I’ve seen so many more unique plays and scenarios through my career and am able to react appropriately because of it. Don’t get me wrong it takes a ton of work to keep up with the young bucks physically, but I’ve done that. I’ve done that work so now it’s advantage.

  5. Sidharth Kaushal:

    The vessel could provide symbolic support and a localized military presence in disputed waters and thus free up higher end assets to be more dynamically employed or held at high readiness for warfighting scenarios, it's an effective use of a less-than-ideal asset.
