Let's play a game! Think about a story you love. How do the characters in the story talk to each other? What do their words tell you about who they are? This is called dialogue.
Dialogue is like a chat between characters in a story, and it's a super way to show what a character is like. Today, you're going to learn how to make your own dialogues for your characters with the help of our friendly AI, Digi.
It's time to introduce your character to Digi. Remember the character you created in the previous lesson? Describe your character to Digi in the chatbox. For example, 'Digi, I have a character named Sam. He is brave, kind, and loves adventures.'
Open chat with DigiNow, let's have some fun with Digi! You're going to ask Digi to help you make your character talk.
Type this in the chat: 'Digi, can you help me create a dialogue for my character?' Digi will then come up with some cool things your character could say, based on what you told Digi about your character. Pick the one you like the most, or change it a little to make it perfect for your character.
Open chat with DigiNow, let's think about how your character talks to others. Imagine your character lost their favorite toy and is asking their best friend if they've seen it.
Use Digi to help you make a conversation for this. Type in the dialogue box: 'My character is talking to their best friend about a lost toy.' Digi will give you a cool conversation idea based on your character's personality.
Remember, the way your character talks tells us a lot about them. So, try to make the conversation really sound like your character would say it.
Open chat with DigiNow, it's time to look at the dialogues you and Digi have created together. Do the words sound like something your character would say? Does it help you imagine your character as a real person?
Remember, great dialogues help your characters feel like real people and make your story more fun to read. Think about what you've learned today and how you can use it to make your next stories even better.
