The writers of the Lost pilot, Damon Lindelof, J.J. Abrams and Jeffrey Lieber, created some great, original characters for the show. The way that the show begins, we know nothing about the characters pasts. We only get to see the way that they react to the crash and the hours after. Great writing, it leaves us wanting to know more. Respond to the post questions below in your blog.
1. Write a character bio for a character introduced in the pilot. This only needs to be a line or two. I will discuss how to write these in class.
2. One of the cool things about the writing of the show is that the writers begin to tell the backstory of the characters as the show develops. For this response, you be the writer. Develop and write an original backstory for the character you chose to do for your character bio. What brought them on Oceanic Flight 815 that day? What was their life like before the crash? Blogs should be at least one well written paragraph. Be original.
