For class Friday we went over how
to find original characters. Being original is important when writing a story, because
the more original you are the more captivated your reader will be.
The recipe for
a perfect story is two characters, one conflict, and one resolution. The point
of view of the story comes from the protagonist or the antagonist.
We try to
avoid 1st level creativity and clichés. We don’t want our audiences
to tune out and not listen to our message. What drives the story and with the
antagonist trying to stop the protagonist is power.
There are
multiple ways to find inspiration for new characters. Professor Jenkins advised
using public sources and such, not just your friends and colleges around you
because using your friends and colleges as inspiration can lead to clichés,
which we are trying to avoid.
