This was quite useful. Short and straight to the points. I love that. No useless junk in between to fill up space, just straight to the point. I subscribed.

@@writeforanimation If there's one thing you did here that I loved was listing things and making it concise and simple, yet enough detail to apply to one's own creations. I'd say breaking down things done well on films would be nice!

Character’s Ghost… never heard that terminology used for character backstory… and I’m a scriptwriter. Thanks Pietro!

I think I've learned the term from John Truby, it's an issue from the protagonist’s past that still haunts them. It's the reason they believe the "lie" that prevents them from living a fulfilling life. In Finding Nemo the barracuda attack that kills Marlin's wife and all Nemo's siblings makes Marlin believe that he can't allow anything to happen to Nemo. I love thinking about a ghost even if I don't include it in the script. I also love how real this is when we think about the people we know, or ourselves.
