What is DAN HARMON'S STORY CIRCLE? We'll explain right here!
Using Dan Harmon's Story Circle, we break down The Matrix to see what we can learn from this theory.
Story Circle puts character front and centre and uses eight beats to form a structure that most, if not all, successful, mainstream movies tend to follow.
We demonstrate how movies are more than just a three act structure and, using the Matrix, we delve into the protagonist's journey and the change they must undertake in order for the audience to empathise and be invested in the story.
If you don't know who Dan Harmon is, he's the guy behind Community and Rick and Morty! In a future episode, we may make a Community Story Circle video or a Rick and Morty Story Circle video, what do you think?

There are a few spoilers in this episode, so if you haven't seen The Matrix, starring Keanu Reeves, Keanu Reeves, Laurence Fishburne, Carrie-Anne Moss and Hugo Weaving, watch the film and then come back and join in the discussion.
