English I (Pre-AP): Quest Archetype / Movie Storyboards

Here's today's presentation on the quest archetype:



MOVIE STORYBOARDS
Please select any movie, book, episode of television, etc., that fits the Quest archetype we've been looking at. Using a storyboard handout, please draw and discuss how the work you've selected meets the six criteria:
  1. Quester: Who goes on the quest?
  2. Destination/Prize: What is it the quester wants?
  3. Mentor: Who give the quester guidance or whatever else s/he will need to fulfill the quest?
  4. Challenges/Trials: Give two examples of things the quester must overcome.
  5. Underworld: Where does the quester have to face down death or come to terms with mortality?
  6. True Objective: What does the quester ultimately get that surpasses what s/he went on the quest to get in the first place?

Due Tuesday, Oct. 11.
