HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hey, hopefully you are somewhere near your mailbox waiting for ME of all people to ask you for some help. On a more serious note i'm struggling with something and forums do not help and books guru's neither ............ I need someone that explain thing in a way that a new born could understand without even trying, and after watching this video i think " MAYBE " you might be able to help me Hopefully you see this, let's go: So here is where am at when it come to understanding the basics Also - I'm french so please forgive my english - If you have a course somewhere that cover just that LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIK MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE do not waste your time here lol i'll pay for those informations no problem as long as can find sleep again i'll be good loooool. ------------------- THE BASICS PLOT = The sequence of events that make up the narrative, that's easy right ? ... Everything in a story is an - Event: (Somebody try to lit a fire in the wood is an action because it's performed by an agent/person, but is also an event because well it happen, if the rain start and put out the fire, it is not an action since nodody has performed it but it is still happening therefore it is an event, finally if the cops came it's both action + event). We have different level of events minor, mid, major, those events are what is a - Story: the recounting or counting of events in their order of happening, CHRONO-logical order: breakfast THEN lunch THEN dinner, the only link between those event are JUST their CHRONO-logy. Event 1 happen before event 2 and event 3 happen after event 2: The king died, then the queen died. - Plot is those story events, selected, deleted, rearranged, extended, shortened, and tied by causality, the king died, then the queen died OF GRIEF. She died because he died and let her alone, one event is the cause OR the effect of the other. In the plot the events are not linked CHRONO-LOGICALLY (they can be) but rather CAUSALLY - Character arc, going from selfish to altruist, from liar to honest, from Walter White, a ridiculed teacher washing cars to HENSEINBERG, or not changing at all: Sherlock Holmes, Columbo etc... - Plot = EXTERNAL journey : The stuff that the character does in the physical world: actions or event (happenings/occurences due to their or others actions) - Character arc = INTERNAL journey: The reason why the character do what they do and what it does to them, how the journey change them. - Movivation > objective > goal and then you have the - Narrative which is just the whole, what you generally tell to people when talking in real life, the movie, the book, etc ------------------- MY PROBLEM is that i'm trying to make sense of characters involve in the plot of other characters, what happen to their plots ? Let me try to explain my thoughts here Joe, wants to save earth from being blown by an asteroid ! Joe's goal is then to destroy that asteroid ! goal = plot ? The plot of the story now is THE SERIES OF EVENTS that joe will be involve in, in order to fail or succeed at destroying that asteroid do i get this part right ? Now every goal are composed of SUB-goals ! Are those what we call SUB-PLOTS ? MINI PLOTS ? - Found a way to leave town and get to the professor - Finding the professor - Convincing a general to let him use military equipments Those are 3 small goals maybe even mini-stories formed by the MAIN goal, the success or the failure of the MAIN goal is conditioned by those small goals SUBPLOT ? But some of those small goals involve characters in them ? - The professor - The general What my brain doesn't get is in which plot those character are ? Theirs ? Or Joe's one ? The main plot is the one from Joe's goal it is HIS plot, but characters are not just the one we use to make streets look realistic, they also have their own plots since they have their own goals, RIGHT ?! So what happen to the plots of characters that are involve in somebody else plot ? Like let's say Joe is going to get the professor and tell him that he needs him to make trajectories calculations about how to get rid of the asteroid, so the professor is now in the plot of Joe, helping with " HIS " (joe's problem) but since the professor now has a goal which is to find the perfect trajectory to hit the asteroid therefore the professor as a plot ? The professor is part of the primary plot, as it’s part of Joe’s quest to stop the asteroid. When in joe's quest what happen the professor own quest ? Does he have one ? Now let's say the dean needs the professor to finish baking a cake for the best-school competition, forcing the professor to do that before he can finish his trajectory calculations for joe's quest/plot does that mean that the professor is now part of the dean plot ? I'm consufed it hurt me lol So basically i don't know if my problem is plot/subplot, character, or p.o.v related ------------------- Game of thrones completely brake my brain ! The character in their all look like they are all MAIN character :( :( :( I feel like i'm trying to finish a puzzle that have a missing piece in it and as long as the piece will be missing i will not be able to learn anything more, i'm now stuck and deep down i'm pretty sure that the wall that prevent me to go further is not even related to plot but maybe character role or some PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE help lol.
