Dramatica is a theory of story which proposes that a story is really an allegory for a person's mind trying to solve a problem. In Dramatica, a complete story is produced when an issue has been fully explored by examining all possible solutions; a story's characters and plot are the thoughts and frame of this mind in tangible form, while Plot Holes and other inconsistencies occur when an argument is incomplete or the mind wanders off topic. In Dramatica, an incomplete argument (a broken story) is called a tale.Dramatica provides a highly structured system that relies on selecting between multiple categories and subcategories of general ideas to produce the structural basis for the author's Central Themes. The theory is complex—too complex for a deep dive here on TV Tropes—but you can find guides on the official website (even a comicbook), a dictionary for the jargon (there is a lot of jargon), and a collection of hundreds of movies seen through the Dramatica lens. The website also offers story-planning software driven by Dramatica principles; it's pricey, but for those who can't afford it there are free copies that offer the full suite of story-planning services at the cost of not being able to save your files.But even if it's too complex for full coverage, we can still cover the basics.The ThroughlinesIn Dramatica there are four viewpoints that the mind trying to solve the problem, the story mind, can interpret the problem through. None of these viewpoints is necessarily more important or prominent than the other. | |
