As I’m working on my screenplay, I encounter a road block. I forgot to work on making a character dynamic! My two main characters, Blaze and Slim Jim, grew up with two characters named Lock Jaw and Dennis. Yeah Dennis isn’t a very exciting name compared to the other 3, but he is a recent character I created. And since he’s a recently created character, I forgot to work on his characteristics! Since the character is an African Wild Dog, I’ve only come up with him having a short attention span and easily distracted. He enjoys chewing on bones, like a dog would, and has a love for the outdoors. Besides these, I don’t have anything else. Like with my other characters, I need to develop his interests, fears, motivations, goals and most importantly 2 emotional characteristics that I can “label” his actions under. Having all these written out for Dennis will not only make him more interesting and unique, but it will help me out when developing the story with him. I’ll know exactly how he will react to any situations while making sure his actions remain unique. Since my story has introduced Dennis, I’ll have to spend a little time developing him as a character before continuing on.
