How to Create a Badass Main Character In Any Genre

ABOUT THE WEBINAR One of the most common problems in screenplays is a weak main character.  The supporting characters may shine, but the protagonist feels thin, directionless, and often “dead” on the page.  Without a compelling main character, your story has no center, no core, no narrative force to drive the story forward.  And with no viable main character, agents, producers, studios, and actors will toss your script on the dreaded “pile.” What makes a Badass? You’ll find out!  This OnDemand webinar will present the building blocks to create a killer protagonist—one who is active, unusual, and has something to overcome in the story.  You’ll learn the “Badass” ingredients, and see how they are applied by top filmmakers in very different genres.   As a screenwriter, director and producer, I’ve been on all sides of the creative process.  I’ve also worked as a story consultant for Disney/Pixar as part of their story trust—working with filmmakers to strengthen their stories and characters
