Persona: Character Development Software - Boxed Edition For Macintosh |
"Go look at your library of writing tools. What do you see? Products to help create a story outline, a place to compile research, a dictionary app, spellchecking, and more. But what about your characters? What do you use to develop them, or do you just sort of, you know, let them evolve. Guessing? Hoping? Try knowing. Persona is based on this concept: by categorizing characters into archetypes, you can know their background, which in turn shows their motivations, and then allows you to predict their behavior. To put it bluntly, it is the difference between deliberately crafting a compelling character or hoping that the character turns out the way you wanted. Get inside your character's head.

How To Become A Standout Screenwriter: 10 Steps To Empower Your Career |
"ABOUT THE WEBINAR The responsibility for a screenwriter ™s career begins and ends with the screenwriter. The hard fact: Your screenwriting career is probably the most important struggle to you and not to anyone else. Only you know the hard work and sacrifices you ™ve endured to go after your dream, so you need to protect your career path by taking responsibility for chartering the course of your career. Your time is precious and you need to constantly be moving forward and avoid the pitfalls of poor choices and negative experiences. Too many times, I ™ve heard screenwriters blame others for their own missteps or lack of success in Hollywood. Some writers look for the quick and easy way to success, but end up frustrated when their only script doesn ™t sell and they have no other plans. It may be easier to soften the blow to blame the agent, manger, producer, or Hollywood itself for not getting your film made, but screenwriters need to step up and take more "

"Finding The Sweet Spot "" When Is My Script Ready? - Ondemand Edition" |
"ABOUT THE WEBINAR We ™ve all heard the Hollywood adage that you only get one shot at having your script read. Is this true? Unfortunately, yes. Unlike your friend who ™ll read multiple drafts in exchange for tequila most executives aren ™t so easily plied. They have an ever growing stack of material to read and an inverse amount of time to get to it. If a piece doesn ™t grab them immediately they ™re not even going to finish it, let alone read another draft. You might decry this reality but if you were in their shoes you ™d do the same thing. It ™s best to embrace the truth and write the best piece you can. But how do you know you ™ve written the best piece you can? How do you know when your screenplay is ready to go out into the world? This, of course, is the million dollar question. Some writers send their material out before it ™s really finished; while on the other end of the spectrum, some writers never feel ready an"

Story Engineering: Mastering The 6 Core Competencies Of Successful |
"The vast majority of writers begin the storytelling process with only a partial understanding where to begin. Some labor their entire lives without ever learning that successful stories are as dependent upon good engineering as they are artistry. But the truth is, unless you are master of the form, function and criteria of successful storytelling, sitting down and pounding out a first draft without planning is an ineffective way to begin. Story Engineering starts with the criteria and the architecture of storytelling, the engineering and design of a story--and uses it as the basis for narrative. The greatest potential of any story is found in the way six specific aspects of storytelling combine and empower each other on the page. When rendered artfully, they become a sum in excess of their parts.
