    22 rules for great storytelling
    1. You admire a character for trying more than for their successes .
    2. You gotta keep in mind what’s interesting to you as an audience, not what’s fun to do as a writer. They can be very different.
    3. Trying for theme is important, but you won’t see what the story is actually about ‘til you’re at the end of it. Now rewrite.
    4. Once upon a time there was…every day…one day…because of that…because of that…until finally…
    5. Simplify. Focus. Combine characters. Over detours. You’ll feel like you’re losing valuable stuff but it sets you free.
    6. What is your character good at, comfortable with? Throw the polar opposite at them. Challenge them. How do they deal?
    7. Come up with your ending before you figure out your middle. Seriously. Endings are hard, get yours working up front.
    8. Finish your story, let go even if it’s not perfect in an ideal world you have both, but move on, do better next time.
    9. When you’re stuck: make a list of what wouldn’t happen next. Lots of times the material to get you unstuck will show up.
    10. Pull apart the stories you like. What you like in them is a part of you; you’ve got to recognize it before you can use it.
    11. Putting it on paper lets you start fixing it. If it says in your head, a perfect idea, you’ll never share it with anyone.
    12. Discount the 1st thing that comes to mind. And the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th… get the obvioud out of the way. Surprise yourself.
    13. Give your characters opinions. Passive / malleable might seem likeable to you as you write, but it’s poison to the audience.
    14. Why must you tell this story? What’s the belief burning within you that your story feeds off of? That’s the heart of it.
    15. If you were your character, in this situation, how would you feel? Honesty lends credibility to unbelievable situations.
    16. What are the stakes? Give us reason to root for the character. What happens if they don’t succeed? Stack the odds against.
    17. No work is ever wasted. If it’s not working, let go and move on. It’ll come back around to be useful later.
    18. You have to know yourself: the difference between doing your best and fussing. Story is testing, not refining.
    19. Coincidences to get characters into trouble are great; coincidences to get them out of it are cheating.
    20. Exercise. Take the building blocks of a movie you dislike. How’d you rearrange them into what you do like?
    21. You gotta identify with your situation characters, can’t just write “cool”. What would make you act that way?
    22. What’s the essence of your story? Most economical telling of it? If you know that, you can build out from there.

      2001 is a different kind of film, and that's okay. It's not really telling a story in any traditional sense, but using the visual language of film to communicate deep themes and emotional experiences. But Stanley Kubrick demonstrated over and over again that he knew the rules of great storytelling, which gave him the latitude to break them when he wanted to do so.

  • @trevorbatesanimation1883
    @trevorbatesanimation1883 8 років тому +2929

    Every Pixar movie has a reason to exist. Inside Out exists to teach kids about emotions, Finding Nemo exists to teach parents to let their kids grow up, and Cars exists to sell toys.

    • @Dracomut
      @Dracomut 8 років тому +376

      No but seriously, Cars 1 exists to say "Talent means nothing if you aren't kind to others" and Cars 2 says "Respect others differences, but always be yourself"

    "Woody is the antagonist" My jaw dropped. I was like oh my god you're right.

    • @alexbobroff
      @alexbobroff 8 років тому +99

      +Murrison It is kind of the same with Joy from Inside Out. That movie has no clear villain, but the whole reason the negative events in the movie occur is because of Joy's actions. She was too busy worrying about how everything Riley did made her happy, that she failed to see the importance of Sadness. This leads to Riley's depression, and the events that led to Joy and Sadness to fly out of headquarters. Pixar is great at making a protagonist, an antagonist. Another example could be Finding Nemo. There is not a clear villain, but you could argue that Marlin's overprotectiveness also led to the events of that movie.

    • @CoolGuyZool129
      @CoolGuyZool129 8 років тому +29

      +AlexFilms1000 Also, if you watch the Black Friday Reel, you'll see that Woody was originally a jerk. He deliberately threw Buzz out the window and ordered the other toys around. At the end of the storyboard, they eventually throw Woody out the window, just like he did to Buzz.

    • @croakinc3670
      @croakinc3670 7 років тому +15

      Yeah that's a bit mind-blowing. It's about a villain who for once doesn't get what he wants when he wants it learning to mature. When you think about it Cars is very similar in that way.

    • @mjangelvortex
      @mjangelvortex 7 років тому +9

      The Incredibles does something kind of similar. Granted that movie does have an actual villain in it. But if you really think about it, if Bob was nicer to Buddy, he might not have become Syndrome.

    I love that you classify how films like the hand drawn Disney classics are good, but not as relatable or applicable. People tend to forget that films can be appreciated at different levels and for different aspects that don't necessarily have to do with the film's quality. I appreciate that, as well as everything else in this video and your entire channel. Best animation channel on UA-cam.

    • @SadicMoutExt12
      @SadicMoutExt12 8 років тому +27

      Disney is the money to Pixar... actually, Disney kind of launched Pixar. It was
      originally a research project on new technologies for animation (an escapee troop from Lucasfilm with Steve Job in guest, yas)... but rapidly subventioned by Disney, as well as some of Pixar's first films by the way. Pixar
      never really worked alone on the production, even before being owned by Disney. While listening to great animators from any studio, they will all tell you there is no competition in the animation field. They are all getting inspired on their fellow artists and they all work together at some point.
      But it's true, I myself also hate when people mix up Pixar and Disney, because when you see "A Disney-Pixar movie", the creation part is always much better than when you just see "A Disney movie". Disney-Pixar
      movies are distributed as follows: money (Disney), creation (Pixar).
      I won't deny it, Walter Disney was a pioneer and a genius... but he was also a mighty standardizer. Not only did he destroy the true essence of classic European fairy tales by shaping them with a very fixed and binary structured conception of the American domestic life, but he also never engaged too much in developing his characters' personalities and individualities. My favorite Disney movies are those involving animals, because most of the time, anthropomorphism underlines an effort in identity building, but it's still very poor in comparison to what Pixar, and Dreamworks to a certain extent, do. Still, Disney's animation is stunning, but c'mon, the future of animation needs solid plots and characters, not just the will and means to show off with beautiful techniques.

    I’ve always idolized Pixar more than Disney. Their stories just always hit deeper. While I like a mix of animation and live action, I like how Pixar furthered the “animation can be art” statement.

    gaston does have a very interesting character and motive if you read into it, consider the fact that everyone loves him and is willing to listen to him when he tries to kill the beast, or when he got the entire town to help him with his sham wedding with belle. because people see him as charismatic, theyre willing to follow him through whatever horrible shit he does, which is present in todays society through things like celebrity worship.
    thats a really dumbed down explanation, but my only reason for posting was to say that gaston isnt paper thin

    Just found this channel from your Futurama video on Reddit. What did you do before this?
    This level of skill doesn't just come out of nowhere.
    Amazing, regardless.

    I'm not entirely sure why but something about your videos man, they make me tear up. I think its because it's nice to feel validated in my deep love for things that were considered nerdy or childish, and have them realized to why they are so important in a way people like my parents or schoolmates could never understand. Thanks you.

    While you say they could never be adapted I don't think that's entirely true. Some of them would be difficult but some would definitely be possible. What is it that is essential to the story of Bug's Life that is beyond it's Seven Samurai inspiration?
    (For example, being bugs kind of helps the theme, but so does being simple farmers as part of a village. The fact the villains are locusts who need food to survive is never explored any deeper than portraying them like a bunch of bullies like the bandits in Seven Samurai. etc...)

  • @Cubics_Rube
    @Cubics_Rube 8 років тому +33

    Nicely done video.
    But I noticed a small thing:
    "You couldn't do Cars in live-action" - Of course you can: It's called _Doc Hollywood_ and it's pretty much the same story.
    But jokes aside, I think Cars is still one of Pixar's weakest, and goes to show that greed can even compromise core values of a company (Cars 2)

    • @briancarey9689

      it brings in money yes, but look up john lasseter talking about the movies, he adores them. in fact, cars is the only franchise that he will direct for. they exist purely because john lasseter wants them to

      @jeffreyquinde6707 8 років тому +11

      Is Cars really the kind of film that was made to make money? If it was made for money, then it would've been a film that was only mindless cars racing with no story at all. Cars teaches us how important it is to slow down and enjoy life

    I've wanted to work at pixar for a numberof years. The unfortunate thing is, I have no visual artistic talent whatsoever. i am a writer, that is my only creative skill. Pixar's writing processas, I understand it, requires artisitic talent and understanding of computer animation. I hope that at the very least my life-long love of their movies will impact the quality of what I produce
