I've been watching a lot of videos on writing recently, and I have to say of all the artists in all the different disciplines, no other artists have as many rules and screenwriters do. That said they do help, so I won't complain too much.
This is not only informative but quite validating that my writing is not hopeless, because I've done a number of these things intuitively. The video also tells me so much about my characters, my story, me. Thank you.
Must love black film and unicorns just do it. The industry needs more diversity and more women. But we can't have that if you don't do it! So start right now! Today! Write everyday and get it out there!
This is an amazing compilation and so infinitely valuable to both new and experienced writers. Thank you for creating, your dedication to education is appreciated.
Been enjoying your channel quite a bit. I'm trying to outline a very complicated novel but the screen is where I really want it. I've been thinking of writing it first as a tv script so that the dialogue and body language can be isolated from the novel's description and then fleshed out with prose later. Anyone tried this approach before?
45:50 to 46:04 - I disagree that a character saying exactly "how they feel and what they want" is terrible dialogue. It depends on what is happening in the scene. Many years ago, there was this great scene on As The World Turns, where the character of Camille was telling John Dixon why she wanted to become a doctor... because of her experience as a breast cancer survivor. The scene was emotional, powerful, and moving. The dialogue, itself, was highly emotive. Many fans of the show said, on message boards back then, that if anyone ever asked them why they watched soap operas, they would want to show them that specific scene.
What I take away from this that is very important is this: Our main character must go through transformative CHANGE, must overcome weakness/demons, to make the screenplay effective. Good example is when watching The Walking Dead series . . . also films like As good as it gets to name another from so much other great tv and film shows.
Peter Russel is giving me life! Everything he's saying just clicks. We write because we imagine wanting things to be different. We imagine because of our perceived trauma that life doles out. So anything that we write is somehow connected to those and if they aren't, they just don't work... Mind. Blown.
I'm really in the thought of becoming a writer, but I'm not sure what medium I want. I know simply writing a novel has the possibility of being the most imaginative and creative freedom, while films and TV shows are a joint effort collaboration. I really adore the way Graphic Novels/Mangas/Comics make their stories, I was leaning more towards Graphic Novels since it'll give me the tools to create the vision of the story I feel is the way the story and the characters and everything is supposed to be viewed compared to another person's vision (director's). But films also give a more realistic combination of Formalism of the director and Realism with Classic I really love. Can you help me Film Courage? I'm quite young almost done with High School and I'm really thinking of pursuing this career in College.
I just graduated and am thinking pretty much the exact same thing. I have a story I am passionate about and I am in the process of writing it all down and editing it so it is best it can be. If you also are passionate about your story then I would urge you to do the same, watch more videos on how to improve your story and characters and don't be afraid to test out a writing major in college to see if its for you.
I'd say research the different formats (screenplays and comic books have a VERY specific structure). Then come up with an idea for a short story. Write the story in each of the formats and see which is easiest for you.
+TimelineProvision TP Watch Up in The Air by Jason Reitman he basically just used the same plot from that movie but he flipped the genders of the characters.
Most studios don't receive submission unless you have an agent or connections. And the three that allow me to submit say because of high volume unfortunately they can't review or produce many. There are a few small studios or production companies, but they want thousands of dollars which I cannot afford.
Just doing script writing research right now, your page has turned into a gold mine for me. Thank you so much for all your hard work. Where is your company located by the way, I am very interested in all that 'FC' does, such an powerful source!
LMAO! I was just about to write, "The 'An Example Of A Wounded Hero Given A Chance To Change by Peter Russell' sounds like 'Up in the Air'." Then he says it! LMAO... Slightly different as he learned that lesson before he got the heartbreaking truth. Good example.
alternate goal -- will hunting wants to have a fulfilling job other than laying brick -- finds out along the way he's in love and the third act twist is often something like this --- he forgoes the external goal to go after the internal one -- he leaves the job behind to get the girl at the end
Subscribed. Thanks for making this. I'm working on a teleplay adaptation of an existing show, do you have any info that pertains to adaptation please? I'm hoping to learn more about the logistics of doing this legally, but I'm mostly interested in the analysis of what makes a show popular and how to translate that appeal to an audience that is culturally different from the original target audience: "The wire" but set in France, or "The walking dead" but set in England (these are just examples). Really appreciate it.
Does anyone know the word Pamela Jaye Smith is using? Something like 'agena' in the section about balanced people snapping and making good villains...I can't make out what she's saying
+Joe Simpson (Jophassa) You almost had it... Ajna (Sanskrit: आज्ञा, IAST: Ajna, English: "command"), or Third-eye Chakra, is the sixth primary Chakra or energy point in the body, according to Hindu tradition.
We have a video with Blayne Weaver we will release down the line where he talks about wanting to make a movie where the main character doesn't really change. Here's a video we have already published which offers another perspective on character change ua-cam.com/video/5WOtnG5rWZo/v-deo.html
I think his wound in most iterations of the character I’ve seen frame the fact that as a child he found out that he was not only different from everyone else but had to hide it from everyone. How can anyone hope to have a true connection / live with another being keeping that kind of secret? And even if Lois Lane loves Superman, she doesn’t love Clark so it’s even worse knowing what live feels like but knowing you can’t have it. That’s why Superman 2 with Christopher Reeve and the tv series Lois and Clark were so good - because in both cases we got to see Clark be able to be his full self, be accepted and loved romantically by Lois. Abandonment is maybe a thing but he does find out in most if not all iterations of the movies that his birth parents sent him away to save his life. So, on the surface it gets resolved but underneath, once you’ve felt abandoned as a child, does it ever really go all the way away even if you find out the truth that you weren’t abandoned? I don’t know. I’m not sure if this right mind you - it’s just my take. But I believe your point is that Superman does have a wound and I agree with that. Typically he just isn’t written in movies to be shown as suffering from the wound in the form of a misbelief that is hindering him somehow in his adult life by keeping him from his fully realized self and/or happiness. This is in contrast to Bruce Wayne / Batman, who is very much shown to be affected by his childhood wound
It's not true that the hero has to have a flaw(s) for the audience to enjoy a movie. Did Luke Skywalker have flaws? Not really. Superman? Indiana Jones? It's all about how fascinating the story is, and if the characters don't have flaws it doesn't mean the movie can't be good and become a box office success.
I may be too good at writing character. I'm writing the first draft for something, and I made up this woman like two weeks ago. Logically speaking, she's really a composite of real people I know with some quirks thrown in, but she feels so alive I think I'm actually falling in love with her. That's messed up, but hot damn I'm good at this. Just gotta get this draft completed by the end of this month.
Okay, saying that in a superhero movie, the protagonist doesn't change may be true in many cases but not always. Tony Stark changes dramatically in Iron Man, so does Thor in Thor. In the Captain America trilogy, Steve Rogers evolves throughout the three Cap films and two Avengers films from someone who would do anything for his country to someone who distrusts his country and, ultimately, to someone who fights against his country, the country that made him the man he is but now has different ideas than he does. So saying that superheroes never change in superhero movies, though it may be true in some cases, is not always true. Those are my two cents.
Pretty much every single superhero that has been on the frontline for the past twenty years, both in movies and series, has a big character arc, especially the MCU ones. Loved the video, but this is definitely the type of dismissive attitude people have towards these films, and instead of actually paying attention they consider them cheap entertainment, which is why they can’t understand why their movies flop and the superhero ones thrive. Some of the most interesting character arcs have been those of superheroes. Wolverine, Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, Daredevil, the Punisher, and many many more examples out there.
The exception is Pamela that calls out Nolan’s The Dark Knight. Bruce Wayne experiences a full character arc in the Trilogy as well as mini arcs in each movie. I believe he is the only Batman that so clearly completes a significant arc.
@@bjarkisteinnpetursson9736 I’d be interested in what you view as the two separate arcs in Begins? Not even arguing…just trying to build my knowledge base on story structure. Do you mean external and internal? I’ve never heard of two separate character arcs for the same character in the same movie. What makes it two separate arcs? The two different lessons / themes learned at the conclusion? The Batman…I assume you mean Pattinson’s iteration. Yes I agree he experienced an arc. It might be interesting to see where subsequent movies take it and what the through line for that iteration’s trilogy would be.
the "change of character" is an important point to keep in mind, but... in a lot of good movies I'm thinking of, characters don't change, so the statement that a good movie is only about a main character who changes, or that a script without this change would then be a bad or uncomplete one is exagerated and can be proven wrong. one flight over a cuckoo's nest : no change of the main character, or the main character is the indian then. man on the moon : the main character doesn't go through any "big initiatic learning" or changes at all, he stays who he is from the beginning til the end. man from earth : no change of the main character as well. gladiator : same! and the list can go on and on. think about what are you fav movies and you'll realise that this "rule" is not a must be to a good movie. it also depends on the genre, because the good horror or sf movies like insidious, alien, damien, dead silence etc... just don't care about their characters changing at all.
This is really good. Watched it twice and took a lot of notes. As a writer, director, editor, & student of the game, I took all things in consideration. I am about pace & dialogue. It all make sense. Thanks a lot Film Courage.
Not trying to be an asshole but I can guarantee that you'll need to scratch the entire thing. I havent read one usable screenplay from someone online yet, Ive read thousands of unusable trash
Pertinent and extremely generous ! I watched it twice ... At the first viewing. Thank you very much for sharing this! One of my favorites video about writing.
Michael Hauge is so generous with his knowledge. His videos are my favourites!
Welp... time to buckle down and take notes
DIIIIIPPPPPEEERRR!!
I love these videos. I'm not writing a script for a movie but for a comic and this channel as well as John Truby's 22 steps book have been amazing!
I'm trying to write a novel myself. Best of luck on your comic btw.

What a wonderful collection of story experts that you put together. Much appreciated
The Characters Play a central role in every story, they take the narration forward and must be given utmost importance. Great Video. Very helpful
That was amazing. Great job. If I have one complaint, it's that it was over to soon.
Ha, our strategy is to make you want to watch it again.

there a tons of movies where many don't change... think of all the super hero movies...007..etc...no arc.
the problem with these guys is that none of them seem to understand flat arc characters or why they can be so powerful.
very nice :)

Listen- and make notes :-)
Bond, James bond, hasn't changed in 50 thousand movies.
I thought Superman was wounded with a sense of being abandoned.

Snowpiercer may be a good movie but after hearing it has cannibalism and cutting arms off for food, there is no way I'm going to see that.
