The search for the next great script that will start
a trend in the industry. It has been every writer’s
dream to find the Holy Grail of concepts,
the next Great Paradigm.
Every studio exec is looking for it to drop out of
the sky onto their desk. So why is it so rare that a truly innovative
script gets into the right hands? Well, it isn't that there aren't any
screen gems out there, cause there are. The first step is in writing
it and more often than not, the writer doesn't know many of the ins
and outs of the process beyond the writing stage.
A writer is a builder,
not unlike an architect of a building. Planning and preparation along
with knowing what works in the practical world is key to a strong
foundation. As we all know, without a strong foundation nothing
can long stand the riggers of time. The strongest shape is the pyramid
and the ancients knew that. Adapting this philosophy to writing is not
new and visually transcends the disciplines.
Just as an architect prepares the blueprints to the
project, the writer needs to know and include all key elements and principles
of STORY.
With an eye to the future, the future of
YOUR script, we have created a series of valuable informational
lessons as a guide for you to create that great script that every studio
exec is looking for. We want you to get it into their hands.
So the next step is yours to take. The next leg of
the great adventure that you as a writer are undertaking, is to discover
the secret to journey you are on.
