Hero's Journey (Monomyth) and Story Structure: Every Hero goes on a Journey

A story IS transformation. That involves moving from one psychological state to another. Sometimes this psychological transformation does not involve a physical movement from one place to another but most often - and ALL THE TIME in successful Hollywood stories - the Hero embarks on a physical journey that stimulates the psychological transformation.

By pulling the Hero through a physical experience, you are stimulating a psychological transformation. In the beginning the Hero will be dressed one way, after being pushed through some stages of the journey, the psychological change will reflect in clothing, behaviour, attitudes and beliefs."
