Character motivation - Archetypes
For this essay you will:
1. Choose one of the characters below. Question I hear:
Can I use a different character? No. Why? Because I want you to step outside the box and read something new and explore a film or novel you do not know. Question: Can I watch the film? Yes, you should watch the film. Netflix and amazon are just a few of the possibilities for finding and watching the film. Then you will read the novel, screenplay or stage play or poem. The written text is what you will quote for the essay. Questions: So does that mean that, even if I have a film in mind that I really love, I still have to use one of the characters on this list? Yes, that is correct
2. Now, think about that character and review the Hero Archetype document. Find the kind of hero this is. Question: What if my hero is a combination of archetypes? Only use one for this essay.
3. Select three aspects of that archetype that relate to your character. Question: What if there are three or four aspects that relate to my character? You can reference three or four only for this essay.
4. Go to google.com and type in that hero archetype so you can research some additional information about that kind of hero and why that kind of hero doeswhat he does.
5. Set up an easybib project and begin researching and citing : the free script, research about the archetype you have chosen, psychological information about the character you have created that might explain motives, critical analysis of your character. DO NOT use easybib or cliffs notes or yahoo answers or Wikipedia or any other sites that are not legitimate, vetted scholarly sources.
6. Study these hero archetypes and see which one best describes the character you have chosen
