How to give the name of a character without it being all banal and none

It sounds stupid but it’s actually complicated. We must avoid the classic “How are you called? “, Bring something more fun to see. The techniques.
Use a conversation where more than two people participate
From the outset, one avoids the face to face classic and relou described in the intro. There, with at least three people discussing, it is enough to have the name of a character spoken and to point the camera towards him . And hop, at least one identified! Kind of scred ‘, of course, like: “By the way, Bernard, what do you think about it?”
Show character name
Another feint. Rather than say it, make it heard, we must mount it, make it see. Via a plaque on the door of his office, an inscription on his professional card, a letter addressed to him … or even squarely an advertising display as for Saul Goodman in Breaking Bad.
Create a waiting scene where their name is necessarily given
Like us, when we go to the doctor, the hairdresser, to an interview or any other official appointment. The character will be there, waiting to be called, wisely, and so will be his name . On the other hand, it is necessary to give a minimum of meaning to the scene. Otherwise, we’re gonna be shit …
Use mobile phone calls and messages
Here is an idea that it is good. In addition, it is the image of our everyday life so it will seem perfectly natural. When you call someone, you usually introduce yourself . Question of politeness, already, and common sense, then, if not the other at the end of the wire will grieve to understand what you want, why … Concerning texting, it is even simpler. Simply film the name of the contact indicated on the screen and the trick is played.
Make two characters talk about a nearby third
Not necessarily wrong, in the language of motherfucker. It does not matter, it’s free. Simply, to make a conversation between two characters about a third allows to show the latter. Easy. We have more than making the name-face link . Normally, it is feasible.
Never mention the character’s name
This happens much more often than you think. And what is also less serious and embarrassing than we think. Seriously, you can very well follow the characters, understand the film and debrief after but without knowing his name . You have other means of designating it. In Fight Club, for example, Edward Norton is “the narrator”. That’s all, no name. And many of us did not even realize it.
Make a scene
Both literally and figuratively. In contrast to the previous technique, here we focus on the name and nothing else. So there must of course be a staging, an explanation, that serves the story . These conditions fulfilled, the film can spend two minutes on a name. Like McLovin in Super Grave. So, who feels warm to write a script now that this major problem is resolved?

Kylie Jenner vs Kylie Minogue, the war goes on!

sivertime — Fri, 10 Feb 2017 19:05:57 +0000

Kylie Minogue won a battle, but not the war! Kylie Jenner counter-attack and she is very uplifted …
Kylie Minogue has violently smashed Kylie Jenner ! The Australian singer did not appreciate at all the attempt of Kris Jenner’s daughter to make her first name a registered trademark. Kylie Minogue did not hesitate to take the case to court, and she won! A defeat all the more bitter for Kim’s sister that her rival described her as “a secondary reality television character . ” According to a source from the Radar Online site , Kylie Jenner is furious to have lost against her namesake, but she does not intend to stop there! The young 19 year old daughter wants to appeal the judge’s decision to outdo the singer of 48 years: “Kylie think Kylie Minogue is tired and she always wants to have rights to the Kylie name to continue to develop its brand “She really wants to create an empire and she has the impression that Kylie Minogue is the only person who gets in the way and prevents her from realizing this dream . ”
According to the site Kylie Jenner hopes to succeed in court of appeal, but it is wrong! Kylie Minogue has largely contributed to popularizing her first name and has been pursuing an impressive career for several decades. If Kris Jenner’s daughter is very successful now, she clearly can not have the nerve to prevent the singer from using her own name! But Kylie Jenner, who is accused of scamming fans with her new Lip Kits , has been the subject of much controversy in recent years and is not always an example to follow in business. Tyga’s darling should perhaps drop this legal battle and focus on her business, especially as with the release of her clothing line with Kendall, she will not run out of work. But with the Kardashian-Jenner, the ego is family … What do you think of Kylie’s reaction?

The latter had found the fault in Germany and managed to escape the Wild Hunt riders despite the fact that one of them left him a wound. Thanks to the Dread Doctors, he managed to become stronger by being impregnated with power for 70 years! Mason understands that Garrett wants the Wild Hunt army for him, to serve him. Elsewhere, Chris is trying to deal with the Nazi werewolf, but he’s far too powerful. He then kills Chris and Melissa before taking Parrish. As for Liam, Mason and Hayden, they are faced with another Ghost Rider. Hayden Mason disappears and sacrifices that can warn Liam Scott, Lydia and Malia who found the flaw in Season 6 of Teen Wolf .
Noah Stilinski remembers everything, his son and the death of his wife.

Later, Garrett and Parrish find Scott and his pack or what remains of it. The latter can not stop Parrish, and so Garrett, from passing through the fault and then get caught by Ghost Riders. Fortunately, Peter is out of nowhere to help them but is still being erased from reality. Only Lydia seems to impress the Ghost Riders! According to her, it is not fear but admiration. Scott understands that his mother was taken by the Wild Hunt. But the sheriff arrives and finally revealed the name of Stiles in Season 6 of Teen Wolf . He remembers everything and even thought he saw her in his room. Scott realizes that to bring back his best friend, they have to remember the smallest details about Stiles.
