Want to write a gripping story with a compelling message that will impact your readers on a deep level? In this video, I'm looking at a fascinating screenwriting concept: the conflict triangle with the stakes character. I dive into how this concept is used in modern films like "Iron Man 3" as well as classics of cinema including "It's a Wonderful Life" and "Casablanca" to tell powerful stories.
The conflict triangle will help you:
(1) Write a gripping plot so readers care about your protagonist.
(2) Develop a convincing character arc for your protagonist so that they have an unforgettable transformation.
(3) Weave a compelling message into your story that impacts readers on an emotional level.
