30 - Opinionated Characters

It’s our last week focused on Pixar Rules! We made it to the end! Today we’re discussing how to write characters with strong opinions and making characters come alive. Join us as we dive into rule #6 and #13.

#6: What is your character good at, comfortable with? Throw the polar opposite at them. Challenge them. How do they deal?

#13: Give your characters opinions. Passive/malleable might seem likable to you as you write, but it’s poison to the audience.
