Dive into the connection between characters and setting. From character traits to compelling geography, discover how both enrich your narrative's authenticity.
In this module, we will embark on an exciting exploration of the deep connection between character development and geography in storytelling.
We will begin by studying the fundamental elements of character building, including personality, backstory, motivations, flaws, relationships, and growth arcs. Understanding these components is crucial for crafting multi-dimensional, relatable characters.
Next, we will shift our focus to geography and setting. Just like characters, locations can take on traits and qualities that shape the narrative. We will learn techniques for choosing compelling physical settings, developing historical timelines, and incorporating technology, culture, and societal elements that enrich our worlds.
