Later on the lesson we looked at a characters in narrative structures and how they are structured, so we studied Vladimir Propp theory for an insight of characters that are structured in films. Vladimir Propp was a 1920's literary critic and a scholar who founded the idea that a certain type of character was to be used in every narrative structure. His theory has influenced many filmmakers to writing and producing successful narratives. Propp also suggested that all fairy tales follow a specific narrative structure. Propp suggested that every narrative has eight different character types: The hero, the false hero, the princess, the father, the helper, the villain, the donor and the dispatcher. Example used in Enchanted. This would guide us to select the characters when for planning for our thriller opening sequence. Tzvetan Todorov
