4. Plot: Traditional Narrative
Are the characters strong?- 2 yes 1 needs work.
Will audience relate?- Yes as it’s a situation most people would have faced, be it from the same side or from outside looking in.
Will people want more?- I believe so and you form a bond with the characters and I have plans for shorts on the other characters back stories.
Do you believe in it? – Yes, I think I have a good base for something interesting and just need a few tweak's here and there and some advice on what needs tweaking.
