Building a story
Building a story!
When it comes to building a story for your film you have to ask yourself certain questions, they are What is the story really about? What kind of setting are you going to want to establish? Will the setting help with the meaning of the film? When asking yourself these questions can further your overall knowledge on your own story, which can overall add deeper feeling and connection to it. Furthermore when creating/ building a story you must keep to certain codes and conventions, such as having the main character interesting, as well as the opposite character also being interested so that the audience wants to stay involved. You can have an external antagonist, as long as you are still creating initial conflict for the main character.
Carrying on when building a story you should not include too many locations, because it can generally become confusing for the audience. Plus there should not be too many events happening because once again it can become quite difficult for the audience to follow and understand, it would be quite easy and structurally right for you as an individual to use one key event. Furthermore, you should be placing your character within an unpleasant position, you would do this so that they would then be able to resolve it, which would inevitably make up the story. The best way to actually engage your audience would be by placing the main character within a difficult position, which would make the audience feel the overall emotion which would be compassion for the actual character which would then generally connect the film and the audience together. A way of putting a character within some difficult situation would or could be by using dilemmas, this means that the character would have to choose, this generally could be done with anything for example family friends, jobs etc. You would be able to make it personal for a individual character, which would inevitably entice the audience. Dilemmas, when using them you should definitely make both routes difficult this would be so that it makes the decision more intense. Another way into engaging towards the audience would be by using conflict, such as arguments/ disagreements, these are generally a perfect way into engaging the audience because it is very realistic, and everyone generally likes drama.
