This reading explained the ordinary world of the hero and the calling to action of the hero. It began on explaining on how to begin the story, before the ordinary world, by using a prologue, opening image, or showing a picture. It then explains the ordinary world and how to introduce the hero. And the last thing for the ordinary world, it explains how to connect the audience with the hero and give the hero a background. In the call to adventure, it explains the different ways the hero can receive the call, via a note, the herald offering the hero a challenge, or the call of temptation.
I feel that this really helped me understand what the ordinary world is and what events happen to the hero in it. It also helps me understand how to begin a story and introduce the hero so that the audience will want to follow it. It also was good in using familiar stories to help me get a better picture of what he was trying to explain.
This reading was easy to understand and follow. This also links to the paper we are currently writing and helps me in writing my story by giving me good ideas to introduce the character and his home. It also helps me with the call to action.
1) Why does the hero have to have a tragic flaw?
2) Can the ordinary world and the special world be the same?
3) Can the call to action be delivered by the hero himself?
