As we discussed in the last video, a character may face many obstacles.

These obstacles can prevent a character from getting what they want, or achieving what they need.

The choices a character makes in response to obstacles and how the character changes as a result.

can be referred to as Character arc.

Something I like to think of is character, obstacle, goal and the character to get to their goal has to go

deal with this obstacle.

The obstacles are what make them who they are, what make them change into this new person.

And that really constitutes the arc.

And if you actually study a lot of the movies and stories that you read,

The character starts off actually in their kind of basic form still about to be formed.

And the characters that they end up being at the end of the movie actually is their higher version.

They're better.

they don't get to go there unless they meet the challenges

and the kind of pressure Thank you that will make them better versions of yourself.

obstacles.

The character is just at a, you know, a flat line.

And when the obstacles comes, it helps to push the character into the arc until they hit the hardest obstacle

that they have to face at the climax.

And it's from there that they're able to complete their arc.

So without obstacles, I don't think that the arc would even exist.

In Incredibles, we have a very clear very external obstacle of the Omnidroid.

Syndrome invites Bob over to the island and he says, "Here's this big droid, let's see if you can test it, fight it." And Bob fights it.

It's a very close battle with that first Omni droid, but he barely beats it.

It takes everything he has, but he does it.

He's victorious, he feels good.

But we as an audience know, "Okay, these guys are about on par." The next time he's invited back, the Omnidroid wins and Bob gets captured.

So now we know, okay, the obstacle is bigger than the hero.

And that reflects his learning arc.

He needs to learn that the Family is his big journey.

The family is what makes him a hero.

So at the end of the film we get the Omnidroid again, but this time we have the entire family of supers and our question is, are they as a family enough to stop this thing?

Of course the answer is yes, they're fantastic.

They're the Incredibles.

Nothing can stop the Incredibles.

Until Incredibles 2.

So all stories have some kind of transformation and It's really compelling to watch a transformation happen, whether it is your character,

or if your character-- makes a transformation in the world.

Sometimes a character might not have a big change, but they will impact the world around them.

And that's also very interesting.

So an obstacle that a character faces like joy What the character wants was to make Riley happy all the time.

What happens?

She falls into the memory though.

There's a major obstacle in the movie.

The emotion of joy is going to be inaccessible to Riley. for good. and inside.

the memory down.

She plays a memory of what happens to Riley when she is challenged.

And when she replays a memory, she realizes that the only reason that Riley actually is happy

is because she actually goes through of faith when she was sad.

Now she knows what she needs.

Riley needs sadness.

And now the action changes.

Joy is going to move heaven and earth to make sure that sadness gets back to headquarters, more important than her own goal,

she'll realize that Riley is actually much better with sadness and fear,

disgust, and all the other emotions in her life in order to make Riley completely happy.

So when we actually watch movies when characters achieve something simply by just walking through a door, it doesn't feel authentic.

In fact, we don't think the character deserves it.

We want the characters to actually work for it.

Because we also know that if you get something for practically nothing, you won't value it.

A character's arc defines the change or transformation a character undergoes from the beginning of a story to the end.

We'll explore structure further in the next lesson, but for now, In this next exercise, you'll have a chance to identify character arcs in the films you love.

as well as brainstorm possible arcs for characters you want to create.

FOR YOU

什麼是跟讀法？

跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
