Based on this principle, this book walks aspiring writers through the fascinating world of character-driven screenwriting. When a writer engages their characters, they start a process which naturally leads to the storys structure and everything else that makes for a well-written narrative. Exploring the protagonists journey and their "unity arc", Myers explains how a family of characters surrounds the protagonist and influences their transformation process. This easy-to-follow guide features activities that will help writers of any level develop their stories from concept to scene-by-scene outline. Based upon a popular workshop Myers has led with over a thousand writers at all levels of experience, this book is a must-have for screenwriting students, both undergraduate and graduate, and those looking at advanced story development. 001445518 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001445518 650_0 $$aMotion picture authorship. 001445518 650_0 $$aCharacters and characteristics in motion pictures. 001445518 650_0 $$aPlots (Drama, novel, etc.) 001445518 650_6 $$aCinéma$$xArt d'écrire. 001445518 650_6 $$aPersonnages au cinéma. 001445518 650_6 $$aIntrigues (Théâtre, roman, etc.) 001445518 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001445518 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aMyers, Scott, 1953-$$tProtagonist's journey.$$dBasingstoke : Palgrave Macmillan, 2021$$z9783030796815$$w(OCoLC)1264403437 001445518 852__ $$bebk 001445518 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-79682-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001445518 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1445518$$pGLOBAL_SET 001445518 980__ $$aBIB 001445518 980__ $$aEBOOK 001445518 982__ $$aEbook 001445518 983__ $$aOnline 001445518 994__ $$a92$$bISE
