#3- Character Story Contribution

 Story development in film

  • Picked film is "Sing"(2016)

Overall Story

  • Is about the startup of a musical theater in which problems are faced gathering performers, making the physical theater, and physical character development.
  • All these problems are soon solved with the characters/performers getting over their own personality issues in which they perform and solve the theaters own problems.
  • I would like to explain each character's story.

Conclusion

  • The characters stories combine as a major piece in the movies own story as which each one has their own lesson to learn. The characters also have real world problems in which make them more relatable to the audience. Therefore, the character story provides a important part to any film and without it would not be as successful. This helps develop my own characters when creating the full story.
