FAQ

Each mythological tale is a sequence of events. Interweaving two of them results in the emergence of a sequence of events which is very different from both the original tales. Any Mythosis plot structure is a unique sequence of events that emerges on interweaving multiple mythological tales.

The interweaving of 32 mythological tales creates infinite possibilities of plot structures. Since, every story is an arrangement of events, it is a subset of one of the infinite Mythosis plot structure.

 

Mythosis plot structure is NOT a story, it is a skeletal framework. It is a meticulous arrangement of events that has a well-defined beginning, middle, and end. It provides a nuanced portrayal of each character’s quest within the broader context of others. The plot structure requires a storyteller to transform it from a skeleton into a fully-fledged story.

Storytellers play a crucial role in shaping plot structures by bringing their unique vision, creativity, and voice. They craft compelling characters, develop unique worlds, weave together themes, create spectacular scenes, and write impactful dialogues.

Mythosis plot structures strengthen the foundation of a story. Evaluation of the stoy’s existing plot structure reveals whether the quests are inconsistent, shallow or disconnected.

For each mythological tale Mythosis has curated a unique sequence of events. These events capture the nuances and distinctive elements of each tale, spanning five major arcs with their own twists and turns. We incorporate the missing events from each tale to amend inconsistent quests, develop shallow ones, and improve the interweaving of quests.

Yes, Avatar was made using the plot structure of Dances with Wolves. We learnt two things from this adaptation.

First, one can create a new story by changing the setting and world of a blockbuster plot.

Second, adding more unique quests can make the plot stronger.

About Us

A decade ago, I established the Story Lab at Disney Star. While developing stories, I had two key realizations. First, modern stories draw inspiration from ancient mythological tales. Second, only a few storytellers have harnessed the potential of these tales. This led me on a seven-year journey. I discovered the fundamental human quests within mythological tales. Explored how blockbuster stories capitalize on them. And ultimately developed Mythosis to end the blockbuster drought.

 

Mythosis offers both a goldmine of stories and a compass to reach there. 32 mythological tales open the possibility of infinite plot structures and stories. Thereby enabling storytellers to transform their idea into a unique story. While the Mythosis Code reveals the principles of storytelling. Principles that help hone raw concepts into blockbuster stories. Mythosis is an approach of imagination and discipline. Where originality flourishes. And stories come to life with depth and resonance.
