Syd Feild Narrative structure and ideas for My Script

The Paperman 2012

VideoPlayer480270-PAPERMAN

The Paperman for me fits Syd Feilds Narractive Structure very well.  Most Hollywood movies format there movies using this structure in my option but some case the narrative structure  is play around with.

Act One  the plot point of The Paperman sets up location and characters in the paperman this first scene it introduces the railway station and these two male and feamale leads. the plot for me is where the pieces of paper blows  and the female lipsnick imprints on the paper. The paper its self plays a big part in the story it comes alive at one point and it is like a character its self.

Act 2 The Confrontation the mid point  in the paperman  for me is where the male character is stuck at work and has ran out of paper and decides to go after the girl.

Act 3 Climax for The Paperman is where The Paper comes alive and reunites these two characters on the train and you have your typical Disney Hollywood ending.

Jack Jack Attack 2005

Title-jackjackattack

Jack Jack Attack is another Disney set in the Incredibles like The Paperman once again it follows Syd Fields structure.

Act one  the plot point of Jack Jack Attack it introduces you two Jack Jack and the girl babysitting him and the setting is The Increables home.

Act.2 The Confrontation the mid point of the film is where Jack Jack is using is powers and the babysitter  cant  handle the baby and keeps calling his parents for help.

Act 3 Climax  of the film comes as the babysitter gets a knock on the door she answers it and hands the baby over to the villain Syndrome  what leads into the ending of The Increables film.

 Characters

Main Character Jason age 12-13. Jason back story is that he comes from a history of violence from his farther he has seen a lot of abuse to him and his mother.

Jason personality is that he is a kind of lost person he is a bit of a dreamer always looking up into the sky thinking of a better life. But Jason can also be a happy person and funny.

Alfred Farther of Jason, Alfred is a fat sloth who is an angry abusive drunk.

Palmer Mother of Jason  you will never see Palmer in the film you will just hear her voice you will not no too much about this character as a viewer.

Location

The Main setting of the story is a small village with not many shops and everybody knows everyone. But you never see the village in the story. The three primary locations in the story are the church the Childs bedroom and the hallway leading on two the stairs.

The Church will be your typical old fashion church with stain glass windows just how you would image a church to look like.

Jason Bedroom will have  his bed in the centre  of the room his walls coverd with band posters such as S Club 7,Kiss,Iron Maiden, Bury Tomorrow,Twisted Sister and Vinny Vincent.

The Hallway leading onto the stairs will be more or less empty not many decorations in the hallway just plain and boring.

The motivation of the characters

What will be Jason Motivation in my story is rage and anger of his farther killing his mother and all his past thoughts of what his farther did to him in his past motivates him to kill his own farther through hatred. Jason Motivation to run to the church is to ask for forgiveness.

My story will start from ending of the story and will rewind to show how Jason got to be at the church. My story will consist of no dialogue. All you will have in the story are sound effects such as screams  and arguing and shouting. I will also have the use of music to show how the characters are feeling at times in scenes.  For an example of music I will use in my story as Jason listens to heavy metal to block out the muffled sound of his parents arguing and fighting.
