How does one create a great character?
Today I read an online article ( Playboy) on Ben Affleck’s take on Batman, this movie will/will not ( only the executive producer) knows in a state of the art Pontiac,MI studio.
Batman is a great character-dark ,moody, depressed and heroic. Add in his rich and lively counterpart Bruce Wayne and you have someone as confused as two face.
Creating a protagonist requires a thought process. In that interview Ben used his dad as the Matt Damon janitor character.
You can create great characters from your background, just remember to change them to the point that even your mother wouldn't recognize them..
