Dramatica Analysis of the Black Mirror: USS Callister Episode

The narrative structure beneath outerspace workplace offenses.

Finally posted the storyform for the Black Mirror: USS Callister episode.

Biggest takeaways from this analysis:

• Nanette's Steadfast Character Arc is to double-down on an Element of Proaction (being forceful towards something)
• Walton & The Crew's challenge to that forceful initiative is an Element of Reaction (constantly waiting and reacting to Daly's moods)
• The Sci-Fi Drama Genre positions the Objective Story Throughline conflict in Universe, and the Main Character Throughline in Physics
• The seriousness of the Subject Matter (MeToo in space) naturally calls for a Stop dynamic (both OS and MC in the external headspace)
• Walton's Changed Character Arc moves him from Acceptance to Rejection. The crew follows suit as a secondary Obstacle Character perspective
