Propps character types

There are a number of character theories to explore.

One of the most famous is by Vladimir Propp who studied folk-tales and outlined seven character types.

1. The villain (struggles against the hero)
2. The donor (prepares the hero or gives the hero some magical object)
3. The (magical) helper (helps the hero in the quest)
4. The princess (person the hero marries, often sought for during the narrative)
5. The false hero (perceived as good character in beginning but emerges as evil)
6. The dispatcher (character who makes the lack known and sends the hero off)
7. The hero (AKA victim/seeker/paladin/winner, reacts to the donor, weds the princess)

Think of a narrative that this theory can be applied to.

Now think of a narrative for your own film using these characters.
