Series engines that sustain themselves over multiple seasons are one of the main creative challenges, especially in times of uncertainty about future seasons. Central conflicts full of dilemmas are the key to lasting stories. Through the analysis of canonical international series, reverberating in examples of Brazilian success, this masterclass will delve into how to create ambivalent protagonists and how their dilemmas create plots for the season. How to reset the character for the following season, what differentiates a premise pilot from a concept pilot, and the differences between universe and character series are the central axis of this masterclass.
