Welcome back to class! We've arrived at the second part of Brandon's plot theory lectures. In this lecture, we're taking a deep dive into different story structures and how you can use principles from any or all of them to create a framework for your story. From the Hero's Journey to Three Act Structure to Story Circle, you'll get an overview of each famous structure. Let's get started!
