Building a Character Profile

The Core Questions

For every subject, try to answer:

  1. Origin: Where did they come from? (Place, family, class)
  2. Formation: What shaped them? (Education, early jobs, mentors)
  3. Motivation: Why did they do what they did? (Money? Ideology? Recognition?)
  4. Method: How did they operate? (Personality, management style)
  5. Relationships: Who mattered to them? (Partners, rivals, family)
  6. Turning points: What moments changed their path?
  7. Contradictions: What doesn't fit the simple narrative?
  8. Humanity: What makes them relatable/interesting beyond the headline?

Finding the Human Details

What makes good lyrics:

  • Specific details (not "he was smart" but "dropped out after one semester")
  • Contradictions (public image vs. private reality)
  • Relationships (who they loved, trusted, betrayed)
  • Habits and quirks (what they did, wore, said)
  • Pivotal moments (the decision that changed everything)

Search patterns:

"[name]" childhood OR "grew up" OR parents
"[name]" "in an interview" OR "told me" OR "said"
"[name]" personality OR "known for" OR reputation
"[name]" wife OR husband OR family OR children
"[name]" hobby OR "in his spare time" OR "outside of work"

Interview Extraction

What to Look For in Interviews

Origin stories:

  • "I started because..."
  • "Back when I was..."
  • "The first time I..."

Motivation:

  • "I wanted to..."
  • "It was important to me that..."
  • "The reason I..."

Self-reflection:

  • "Looking back..."
  • "I should have..."
  • "If I could do it again..."

  • "[Name] and I..."
  • "The team was..."

Pivotal moments:

  • "That's when I realized..."
  • "Everything changed when..."
  • "The turning point was..."

Reading Between the Lines

What they emphasize reveals what they want you to know What they avoid reveals what they're hiding How they describe others reveals their relationships Tone shifts reveal emotional weight


Ethical Considerations

Private vs. Public Figures

Public figures (executives, founders, public officials):

  • More latitude for research
  • Public statements fair game
  • Public actions documented

Private individuals (family members, minor players):

  • More caution required
  • Focus on what's already public
  • Consider impact

Sensitive Information

Use carefully:

  • Mental health details
  • Family relationships
  • Financial difficulties
  • Personal struggles

Always ask: Does this serve the story, or is it just invasive?

Living vs. Deceased

Living subjects:

  • May respond to the work
  • Consider current context
  • Avoid defamation

Deceased subjects:

  • Consider impact on family
  • Legacy is contested territory
  • Death circumstances may be sensitive

Common Album Types

Tech Founders

  • Origin stories
  • Philosophy/ideology
  • Key decisions
  • Relevant albums: Distros

Corporate Executives

  • Career trajectory
  • Management style
  • Downfall narrative
  • Relevant albums: Authorization, Mark to Market

Remember

  1. Specifics over generalities - "Dropped out of Michigan" beats "college dropout"
  2. Their words are best - Direct quotes > journalist paraphrase
  3. Contradictions are gold - Complexity makes compelling characters
  4. Relationships reveal character - Who they loved, hated, betrayed
  5. Small details humanize - Habits, quirks, appearance
  6. Timeline matters - When did they change?

Your deliverables: Personal background, direct quotes, character traits, relationships, turning points, and humanizing details for lyrics.
