Types of Characterization

The video tutorial explains characterization, a method authors use to describe characters in literature. It covers two types: direct characterization, where the author explicitly describes a character, and indirect characterization, where the character's traits are revealed through actions, dialogue, and interactions. Examples of both methods are provided, illustrating how readers can interpret character traits. The video encourages viewers to think about examples of characterization in literature they have read.
