Why Story Structure Matters (Soul and Wish analysis)

Фильм және анимация

In this video, we focus on the importance of story structures and how to use them effectively. Using Disney's well-structured Soul and the less successful Wish, we break down what makes a story truly compelling. From plot and character arcs to theme and the concept of wants versus needs, we explore how each element contributes to a cohesive and engaging narrative. Whether you're a writer, filmmaker, or story enthusiast, this video will give you valuable insights into crafting powerful stories.

    In Soul, the premise of the story is existentialism. Both Joe and 22 are attempting to discover the meaning of life. Both of them are searching for a deeper meaning, in the grand scheme of things. Wish's premise is nonexistent, except for the notion that Asha believes that everyone should get everything they ever wanted. Her intentions feel superficial. King Magnifico is only cruel to be cruel, and neither one of them has any real agency. There's no real character growth or development. And why was it so crucial for Asha to ensure that everyone gets their wish? They seemed pretty content, otherwise. Joe, on the other hand, thinks that he knows what will make him happy, which is being a musician. But then he realizes that all he needs to do is just live life to its fullest. 22 helps him see that. At least these two have a meaningful connection. Asha doesn't have this with anyone. Perhaps Disney had forgotten how to write stories with purpose, at this point.

    I love your video on story structure and the film comparisons between Wish and Soul. Wish definitely lacked character and story developments, but Soul had a more structured skeleton for developments and arcs.

    Great video! I really like the breakdown of what makes a structured and emotionally resonant story, and how it's necessary to have your characters change and grow in reaction to events, not just the event themselves.

    thanks for the suggestion and your kindness, the video currently has three thumbnails , it's a test to compare and see which one works better, but I think I know which one was shown to you.

    @@scenesandstructures I saw the one with Wish and Soul juxtaposed with a cross and a tick and I liked it. It made me click the link. Great video, btw. Those are basics, of course, but helped me see the matter of structure more clearly, as I'm working on my first real piece of fiction.
