Characterization Elements Protagonist Antagonist Static Flat Round Dynamic Character Foil

Static vs. Dynamic Static characters are minor characters in a work of fiction who do not undergo substantial change or growth in the course of a story. Referred to as 2D characters They play a supporting role to the main character, who as a rule should be round/complex. A dynamic character is a major character in a work of fiction who encounters conflict and is changed by it. Dynamic characters tend to be more fully developed and described than static, characters. If you think of the characters you most love in fiction, they probably seem as real to you as people you know in real life.

Round vs. Flat a character in fiction whose personality, background, motives, and other features are fully defined by the author. Three dimensional a character (usually minor) who is 2D The author only shows a few characteristics (personality, background, motives, etc.) to the reader

Character Foil a character who contrasts with another character (usually the protagonist) in order to highlight various features of that other character's personality, throwing these characteristics into sharper focus.

Setting Elements Mood Atmosphere Tone

Mood vs. Tone vs. Atmosphere Mood: The atmosphere that surrounds a literary work with the intention of evoking a certain emotion or feeling from the audience. Mood may be created by a combination of such elements as SETTING, VOICE, TONE and THEME.

Mood vs. Tone vs. Atmosphere Tone: The attitude of an author, as opposed to a NARRATOR or PERSONA, toward her subject matter and/or audience. Tone is closely linked to MOOD, but is associated more with VOICE.

Mood vs. Tone vs. Atmosphere Atmosphere: the mood/emotion that is created by the setting

Plot! Exposition Rising Action Climax Falling Action Denouement Resolution

Plot! Exposition: provides the background information needed to properly understand the story, such as the problem in beginning of the story. Rising Action: the basic internal conflict is complicated by the introduction of related secondary conflicts Climax: turning point, which marks a change, for the better or the worse, in the protagonist’s affairs Falling Action: the moment of reversal after the climax, the conflict between the protagonist and the antagonist unravels, with the protagonist winning or losing against the antagonist. Denouement (day-nu-ma): comprises events between the falling action and the actual ending of the drama or narrative and thus serves as the conclusion of the story Resolution: conflict is resolved, usually where we see how the characters are responding to the conflict being resolved
