THREE ACT STRUCTURE BUILDS CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT IN THE FICTION FILM SCENARIO “SUNNY’S STORY”

Abstract

Creative writing requires a clear narrative structure so that the story can be conveyed effectively and interestingly. Film script writing uses the popular Three Act Structure theory as a starting point before beginning writing. The division into three acts aims to analysis this theory to build Character Development in order to be involved in the creation of the film script for Sunny’s Story, which raises the theme of self-concept. This film script will highlight the main character’s journey in facing internal and external conflicts as a search for and recognition of their true self-concept.
