The start of a new project is always exciting. You flesh out your concept, dive into your research, start thinking about an outline, and begin developing your characters. But is there a tried and true method for developing compelling and dynamic characters to populate your story? How do you nail down their personality, flesh out their backstory, figure out their wounds and flaws, and set up a satisfying arc for them?
This 90 Minute Webinar Will Cover:
- Establishing personalities
- Backstory
- Wounds, demons and fatal flaws
- Character arcs
- Live Q&A
Alexandra holds a degree in English Literature from UCLA, which she earned while pursuing acting. As an actress for many years, she learned the ins and outs of character, story and entertainment first hand, both on stage and in front of the camera. As the Director of Education at Roadmap, Alex strives to identify the most common hurdles writers face in developing their work and design classes, clinics, and webinars to address these issues. In addition, Alex is a writer with several scripts, a novel, a short film (produced during the AT&T Shape Create-A-Thon), and a webseries (coming soon!) under her belt. Prior to Roadmap, Alex worked in live events, law, and education.
