Workshops
Presented by Read3Zero
You will never read a book, write a story, or watch a movie the
same after these workshops!
Learn specific character development techniques used in your favorite books,
movies, and stories! Students will learn basic psychological Archetypes/Character Roles critical to the development of effective fictional characters and how to place them in an original storyline. Heroes, Mentors, Villains, Heralds, Threshold Guardians, all have a
special role while helping move memorable stories from one act to the next.
Learn the fundamental Story Layout: the 3 Act Story Line and effective transitions between story acts, including character trials, story climax, and character change.
Learn how to discover an effective Theme for your story, including tactics to apply emotion, imagery, and utilization of the senses, while connecting to your audience. These skills can all be used in and out of the classroom.
