Who are these people?
I'm revising my screenplay for the fifth time.
The structure is tight, but the characters lack sufficient depth and motivation. Two players in particular -- the lead female and the villain -- are giving me no end of trouble.
She should be easy -- once I've locked in her backstory, her motivations should be clearer. The Bad Guy's a harder nut to crack. How far should I go to humanize the antagonist?
I look forward to nailing these characters down to the page so they'll quit squirming and making a nuisance.
