Tips For A Stellar Fan Film
Decide On Characters
You need to decide on a protagonist. Who is the main character? Who are the supporting characters? Who (or what) is the antagonist?
Create Multiple Conflicts
What goal is the protagonist trying to achieve? It’s important to have ONE big goal the protagonist is trying to achieve and put many obstacles in the way of reaching that goal. There should be multiple smaller conflicts on the journey to solving the main conflict.
Mix Universes
Nothing better than a superhero mashup. Like Batman VS. Superman or adding different characters into the Smash Bros. games. When you add new characters, they have a different dynamic which creates an intriguing and fresh storyline.
Add Dynamic Characters
Dynamic characters are important to the plot because each character plays a key role. You can learn the different types of characters here.
Switch Up The Plot
Just because Batman is in your movie doesn’t mean he has to be the main character. Focusing in on the lives of the side characters can be extremely interesting.
Add Easter Eggs
Add in references from other movies or universes as an added bonus for your audience to figure out. Nothing better than going back through a movie you love and picking up on little things here and there.
