03.06 Character Bio/Backstory (Day 3)

ABOUT THIS LESSON

Hi Friends

Today, we discover our characters, who they are, and what makes them tick.

Have you ever watched a performance and thought, “Wow, that actor brought that character to life?” That’s often because the actor ‘did the work.’ They took what was on the page and expanded it by creating a unique backstory and biography, something they could use in a scene.

In this video, I will demonstrate how to write a compelling, thoughtful character bio and thorough backstory using the actor’s process.

The more information you have about your characters, the more options you have when getting them in and out of situations.

I’ve attached a link to the CHARACTER WORKSHEET.

Happy Writing.
