cooper is not comfortable where he is, let's just say he isn't thrust into the wild adventure yet. the world he is in is bleak. there is no disruption of peace , it begins with a disrupted world.
I believe a good story consist of having great conflict. Conflict in each acts, scenes, and even within dialogue. If you look at Tarantino’s movies and his concept on story structure which he doesn’t really abide by, each of his scenes, character interactions, and his rich dialogue all involves conflict which moves the story forward and it works. I don’t believe there is a right or wrong way of telling a story as long as there is consistent conflict that moves the story forward.
THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STIL;L, see how it differs from the original story... "I an the Master vs. the religous aspects of the movie - much broader "reach!"
your story circle does not work 4 me as ne does not creat interest in a zone of cokfort, a reader will not turn the page;m the middle story can be hurdled via action sequence that continues suspense as in works via Clive Cussler, note, see how he creates reader interest in his beginnings.
the guys that don't follow a formula probably subconsciously write a story that closely fits in with the circle - we have all seen so many movies I guess it is intrinsic to us on what makes a good story but to be able to define the formula on what is a good story is infinitely harder than to simply recognise a good story - I kinda hate the idea of writing by numbers but Harmon makes it look easy. I also think its just as important that you make the main protagonist relatable.
it feels like i just watched studio binder release a video exactly like this super recently… almost like beat for beat… yo someone might be stealing your content….
There’s an error in the image and structure example. For Dan Harmon is not a 8 circle parts. Please look his original video. It’s 4 parts and 4 plot points. That thing change everything in this video.
Story is an art form and like most art it doesn't have rules. Guidelines sure but not hard rules. You cannot fit every story into the story circle. You can force some spots to kinda make it seem like it fits but there are some stories that don't find. You have to take into account length of story. Long form manga for example definitely doesn't fit in the story circle. The story circle is a good tool to use and is flexible enough to tell a lot of different stories. But it definitely can't fit all stories into the it's circle.
it disheartens me that many of the best film directors/storytellers ie tarantino and harmon are sexual deviants who may or may not have visited Epstein's island.
Instead of saying Harmon invented the story circle, it might be more appropriate to say he modified Campbell's Hero's Journey which is also cyclical and shares many of the same points and concepts. Harmon's simplification is brilliant, digestible and much appreciated but it was hardly his "invention."
It’s similar but pretty distinctly different in terms of what each stage focuses on. I’d say harmons circle is much more grounded and the hero’s journey is more grand in approach.
Wow you completly stole this entire video concept and even the script. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_hxnulkE3Dc.html Wow man... you talk about writing a story yet you pledgerize your youtube video about writing a story. SMH.
I'd like to mention the part of #2 which is the heartbeat of the story - sure Cooper wants to save his family but he also REALLY wants to explore. Murph is aware of this and to some degree feels like her father chose it over her. This is basically a self insert by Nolan - you can't make the films he does without being away from your family for extended periods of time - and it's his struggle with this that's the emotional core of the film, more than simply his love for his daughter.
Ironically, Dan Harmon doesn't like Interstellar, and even went as far to say that Christopher Nolan is a director in desperate need of a quality screenplay during an episode of Harmontown.
This movie made perfect sense to me once I'd watched it a second time in a row. I didn't have any more trouble following the basic plot or hearing dialog. There are definitely some sequences so complex, they defy comfortable viewing. The inversion point at the end of the midpoint action sequence is enormously hard to follow. But that doesn't mean it makes no sense, anymore than a swiss watch is a cluster of junk because we can't follow all the cogs and mechanics. The answers are there if you want them. As for whether it's entertaining, that's purely a subjective issue, completely independent of the complexity. Personally, I find it incredibly engrossing, with brilliant character work. It has a lot of exposition, of course. It's a Chris Nolan film after all. That comes with the territory of films tackling the fantastic rules of dream sharing, the complexities of relative time in space travel, or whatever else the films are exploring. If you're not into complex ideas that require exposition to understand the deeper themes of the film, maybe Nolan isn't for you. If you're having trouble trying to piece together the order of events of this particular film, and their logical meaning, I think you might have missed the point of it. Inception was, ultimately, about the complex, indirect way in which we learn to accept new beliefs when we need to. We can't just be told things, we have to experience them. That's what the movie shows. Tenet, on the other hand, is about how we can never truly be in control of our lives, and we have to take some things on faith. It's a movie that rewards letting go of perfect understanding, not because understanding is impossible, but because the mechanics of how it all works isn't the real story. The real story is the Protagonist, the antagonist, and the woman caught in the middle. If you're busy trying to understand the cause and effect games, you miss that.
Well explained and thank you, but every movie has a general story circle and 4 story circles , Act 1 has one and act 2 has two and act 3 has one, you are talking about the general story circle Cooper's change is when he leaves his daughter again for a new love and a new hope in life which is Dr. Brand. because he loves his daughter he couldn't let her go until he is reunited with her again and let her go.
For me mainly I think after I've watched many video explain dan harmon's story circle vs 3 ACT i see it's up to you meaning is you can use what the heck you want whatever tell a good story It's up to you. Anyway references and start to write something ! Thanks for video and all way keep it simple f*K up
Hahaha! Dude I love your take on this! I actually thoroughly enjoyed the movie and several of the palindrome theories I’ve seen about it. (It is unnecessarily confusing though) But your take is great and you’ve got a super polished and fun approach to this! Well done!!
@@cinemainsidr Thank you for putting this out there. I can't even fathom the work it must take to make these videos, so I can only stand aside in respectful awe when someone puts out a quality video like this.
Masterpiece for me... it is a heavy critic opinion on nowadays society destroyed by woke and cancel culture... constant revision of history with false information... geopolitical issues between several "big" countries while other countries are suffering because of that... question between free will and determinism... lack of faith in people due to little trust, disappointment, everything we knew is wrong...
@@Shan17992 The Monomyth/Heros Journey/Story Circle is actually a dissolution and analysis of the greater selection of Human Mythology from all cultures of the world restructured into a logical set of steps and threshholds that a "Hero Archetype" has to go through in order to achieve Hero status. There are additional modalities of the myth structure outlined in the hero with a thousand faces by Joseph Campbell. Its important to remember its not a hard and fast structure to follow but a liquid, living outline on the process of becoming heroic thats been passed down from generation to generation. you can ignore it but you will in some ways always return to it.
