Building and Developing Characters

Written By Emily Inkpen

In my 10,000 Twitter Followers Q&A there was one question I didn't answer as well as I probably should. After some follow-up conversations I decided to do a separate video on building and developing characters. I hope you find it useful!

In this video I cover:

  • What to know

  • What not to know

  • A useful exercise when teasing out character details and working out how characters might react in different circumstances

  • Evolving wants and needs throughout a narrative

  • Using music to help get into a character's head space and mood
