Screenwriting – Create and Develop Memorable Characters

  1. Overview
  2. Description
  3. Speaker

What makes a great character? Do you remember your favourite hero? Your favourite villain? Memorable characters can make or break a story.

As a screenwriter, it is your responsibility to create and develop those characters so they can move the audience, relate to their own lives and resonate long after the movie is over. From Ratatouille to despicable Gru, from Ernest to Celestine, we will explore how memorable characters are developed and what allowed them to stay in our cultural memory.

Laurent Auclair is a French-Australian award-winning screenwriter, mentor and script producer with more than 20 years of experience in Animation and Live-Action development of stories and memorable characters.
