Norma Fontain gives Tools to choose the name of the characters in your story

Description

Norma Fontain Said Writing a novel or screenplay begins mostly with an idea, an image, http://asumag.com/users/norma-fontain-overseas-sales-feature-films Norma Fontain The overseas sales of feature films a topic to be addressed. This is called the premise of the story. But a plot, it's always someone's story. Once the author knows what he wants to talk, he'll think about characters who illustrate his point and allow the viewer to emotionally involved in the plot.

The choice of the name of a character is of course only a small part of his characterization but most writers choose it carefully, not so much because a surname that sentimentality reveals casually, quite things about the person who wears it. Here are some resources and food for thought for those of you who are blocking this step ...

James Bond would he so impressed his enemies and the fairer sex had he called Raoul Tartempion? It's unlikely any more than Scarlett O'Hara would have been called Lucille Brown. It seems obvious as it says but remember that these names have become true archetypes.

Naming a character is given immediately to the viewer information about it:

• age group and era to which it belongs


• ethnic or religious background


• regional origin, particularly in France where it is still very marked


• social environment from which it came

To make your credible choice, see, via the Internet, http://militarybeliever.com/events/details/318 Norma fontain : A good film is above all a Good scenario lists of names in vogue a given year in a particular country, specialty engines are legion.

We can go much further reflection by finding, like many expectant parents that choosing a name will determine certain characteristics of the subject's personality as each name has a symbolic meaning.

In short, when you create a character, start by imagining his biography: that he is, at what time did he see, how old is he, where did he come from, what kind of family he is born I need regular. What are its traits (qualities but also defects) significant? If it is an action movie hero, for example, opt for an incisive name: James Bond, it's better than Edward Ruppert Croawford, right? Lord Edward Ruppert Croawford, it makes him squarely in the Agatha Christie mystery however.

The kind of your scenario is also important. Consider for example the surnames of the characters in the film The Fabulous Destiny of Amelie Poulain (scenario Guillaume Laurant and Jean-Pierre Jeunet) actively participate in the fun atmosphere, poetic and delightfully quaint history, clichés Franco french vehicle that voluntarily.

Here are some resources from which to draw inspiration:

Forget the corny names dictionaries offered to prospective parents, http://ireport.cnn.com/docs/DOC-1140591 Norma Fontain make a short fiction film or documentary the Internet is full of much more targeted resources, for example:

A comprehensive linkographie prepared by the Writing World.com website, classified by ethnicity
2000 names: international search engine
The etymological dictionary Behind the name
Generator surnames fictional specially dedicated to authors
The generator Site Language is a virus that has many subcategories by type
A name generator SF and fantasy-oriented characters, and second, outright hardcore, that differentiates the various peoples who haunt the genre ...
A site dedicated to the Celtic names
A dictionary of proper names recommended by my colleague Robin Magic Barataud

Ten tips before you begin your research:

Avoid, in one scenario the combination of family names that look alike, for fear of confusing the reader / viewer. If you have a Paul in the plot, skip the office of Jean-Paul, Paul-Marie, Paul-Emile and others ... the same rule applies to the sounds too close. If you enter a Brian in history you go Alan, Jonathan, Dylan ...

Unless it is actively involved in the characterization of the character (someone who comes from the nobility, for example), do not choose surnames too complex. Originality is good, but to a certain point, do not overestimate the power of concentration of the public ...
A very complicated name may be appropriate, https://medium.com/@moviebusiness/norma-fontain-different-broadcast-around-the-short-film-ae039162e222 Norma Fontain different broadcast around the short film however, as part of a television series to create a comic repetition. Those who worshiped like me the poisonous sitcom Married with children will remember with nostalgia the reporter Miranda Vera Cruz de la Hoya Cardenal. Anyway, the process remains dicey ...

Beware not to use existing names too recognizable. If you want to nominate a serial killer like your neighbor, it can pass only if his name is veeeeeery usual. Otherwise it can make a complaint.
Same with loans, check, via Google, for example, that your idea of name has not already been used by another author. Well if it is a Mark Smith I do not think you have big problems if you opt for Charles Swann, however ... Yes, okay, Bella Swan it does not work either, youth gang p'tits!

Try to be a little inventive. I kinda feel like the heroines of French movies are called Marie once in three, do not you? ;-)
Zap fanciful spellings, like Caroleen or Carolyn instead of Caroline, frankly no viewer will grasp the nuance, and for good reason.
Avoid avalanche of nicknames for the same character, otherwise it will be incomprehensible.
The symbolism and tributes, it's great but do not be clumsy: a traitor who is called Judas, or a botanist called Flower, frankly, it is the way ...
Do not pour into the esoteric to the death, for fear of being / the one (s) to enter the references. https://adapt.nd.edu/groups/normafontain Norma fontain tried to master the technological developmentsof films Few people know the Sumerian deities for example.

Conclusion

If with all that you do not find your happiness! But be careful not to feel that your creative work is completed once the carefully chosen surname, characterization of a character is a long and complex stage. A name and a physical are not nearly enough to make a character on the screen exist. So that the public can identify, or at least endeavor on one of the heroes of a film, so that it follows its course with interest, emotion or anxiety, it is still necessary that can understand. The art of the writer is from the beginning of the film, to give the public the impression that he knows little or nothing of the characters he sees on the screen, and it asks the author a lot of work!
