Infinite Heroes
Use the Complete Hero’s Journey for Your Writing
In fact, ALL of the Hollywood movies we have deconstructed [at http://www.clickok.co.uk] are based on this template.
Understanding this template is a priority for story or screenwriters.
The Hero’s Journey:
a) Attempts to tap into unconscious expectations the audience has regarding what a story is and how it should be told.
b) Gives the writer more structural elements than simply three or four acts, plot points, mid point and so on.
c) Interpreted metaphorically, laterally and symbolically, allows an infinite number of varied stories to be created.

Sample Stages
The Hero’s Ordinary World. For example, in Tsotsi (2005) we meet Tsotsi in the South African townships.
The Hero’s Status. For example, in Tsotsi (2005) we see Tsotsi leading the pack of gangstas.
The Shape Shifter: For example, in Tsotsi (2005), it is the bar owner that ultimately calls the police.
Resisting the Transformation: For example, in Tsotsi (2005), Tsotsi beats up Teacher Boy.
