Action/Adventure

1.   Hero/Victim/Villain: The cast must include at least one hero, at least one victim, and at least one villain.

2.   Destination/Promise: What we also need in an Action Adventure Story is a clear Destination. What I mean by that is we need to be given a quest at the very start of the story that has a clear purpose.

3.   Path/Methodology: The third thing we need in an Action Adventure Story is a clear path to the destination, a yellow brick road. By following the path we will reach the promised land.

4.   Sidekick/s

5.   Set Pieces/Weigh Stations: The Action Adventure Set Pieces are mini-stories within the global story.

6.   Hero at the Mercy of the Villain Scene: The “hero at the mercy of the villain” scene is the core event of every action story including Action Adventure.
