Creation of a Short Film : Character Biography...

 

In order to create memorable and intriguing characters , and most importantly believable characters, I must ensure that as the writer I know my characters inside-out, back-to-front, that I know every high and low of their life, their habits, morals and little quirks. Therefore I have taken on board the template of questions I created early on in the year in order to allow me to construct a biography of my key characters, allowing me to understand why my character behaves in a particular manor, why they wear a particular garment and why they react towards another in a certain way. In order to create my biography I decided to use publisher and create a mind map, I could of created a straight for word processed sheet of answers however it order to make it visually more interesting and ensure I use a range of computer soft wares I thought publisher was the way forward, above is an image of one of of the four bigraphies I created, hope this gives you a little taster into the mind of my characters, what makes them tick and what makes them flip!
