Character Development

Like everyone else, I'm excited for an extended Easter weekend. But forgive me for casting a shadow on your happy holiday; our final project proposals are looming.
I've just been searching online for some help on developing good characters, and there is a lot out of good information out there. You might find a lot from the novel or play writing perspective, but many ideas you find in that area are transferable.

storymind.com has compiled tips on writing characters that you'll find useful. One here is about developing characters through conflict, a relevant topic since prof. Edwards emphasized the necessity of conflict in scriptwriting. Interestingly, this writer warns us that only using conflict can actually limit character development, and that relationships between characters are the most effective ways of revealing character. Essentially, there are four kinds of relationships that can be used: dynamic, companion, dependent, and associative.

I just thought I'd share that bit of information with you. A quick google search will bring up a lot more that you can use. Good luck and Happy Easter!
