Template - Character biography (story edition)

I've come up with this template a bit of a while back. For characters that are part of a story!

Attention, notebook-hoarders (and me)

Not exactly writing-related, but I've been a notebook-hoarder since I was 8 years old (I'm not lying) and I just wanted to share these ideas for notebook uses.

• Memos & stuff:
  Obvious option #1. Just a place where you can just quickly jot down anything important that you'll use sometime. Like shopping lists, basic planning, to-do lists, quick calculations if you need to work something out, etc. This can also be used when you don't have a specific notebook handy at the moment. I like to make this notebook able to fit inside a pocket.

*NOTE*

Also, I should mention: I'll be 100% honest, this can all be divided into different notebooks for organisation's sake, but for me personally, I find that all the limitations that books have for really specific uses is quite demotivating. Like, who are you to tell me where to write what specific thing, hm????? (I'm kidding, but I'm serious about the demotivation part)

Script Writing 2021 - Final Assignment - Pitch & Script

UPDATE: Uploaded to another portfolio (I'm organising my things, separating my works more closely connected to things not under my alias)

Final Assignment

Script Writing, Winter School 2021

ONE-PAGE PITCH

TITLE: Ms Axel is a Goon

GENRE: Action, comedy, sci-fi, family

LOGLINE: In the humid city of Dasmus, Mei Axel is a former goon who's just escaped captivity. Since her escape, she's been trying to better her life with her new found passion for music, but she quickly learns that the entire country wants to trade her name and face for a price.

FORMAT: Full-length animated film

Rebranding?

I'm putting my writing on here, now! But, I'll still keep my writing notes, as well as add in some more in the future, since trying to teach is another way to enhance my learning. Anyways, I'll be formatting my written works similarly to my comics blog. Aaand, that's all I want to say, really. Yeah.

Fight/Action Scenes: Three-act Structure

I've written a couple fight/action scenes before, but I was never really proud of them. They all seemed messy and allover the place, and I couldn't put my finger on it. It wasn't until when I was in one of my classes and my professor mentioned that three-act structure can also be applied to fight scenes, too, that made me realise what was missing in my writing.

Figuring out character voice

I’ve figured out a way to describe character voice when I remembered that Nintendo 3DS game, Tomodachi Life. When you create a character in the game, there are certain elements you can make adjustments to that make up the voice in the voice settings. 

The adjustable voice elements include: pitch, speed, quality, tone, accent, and intonation.
