Course Details
Film and Television Institute of India (FTII), Pune under ‘Centre for Open Learning’ (CFOL) program, announces “Basic Course in creating characters for Films and OTT Series” (Weekend and Online).
Characters are the heartbeat of any story. You might have a brilliant concept, a solid plot structure, or engaging dialogues, but without believable, dynamic, and compelling characters, your script risks falling flat. On the other hand, a well-crafted protagonist can captivate audiences so thoroughly that minor flaws in the story are overlooked.
If there’s one thing all writers agree on, it’s that riveting characters are the cornerstone of engaging storytelling. This workshop dives deep into the process of creating memorable characters for films, TV shows, and OTT platforms.
