Character Development for Features with Adele Lim and Mike White

On May 20, we explored the process of character development for film with screenwriters Adele Lim (Raya and the Last Dragon, Crazy Rich Asians) and Mike White (Beatriz at Dinner, School of Rock, The Good Girl). We cover topics such as establishing character need/motivation, building character growth and arc, finding compelling character traits/flaws, and more. Moderated by WGF librarian Lauren O’Connor.

Excellent interview, pure gold for anyone into writing, especially character. Thanks Lauren, and to two outstanding but very different writers. What a gift.
