From the Founder
I believe that a more informed audience raises the bar for storytelling. That examining the techniques used to tell great stories makes your own writing better and your appreciation for the stories deeper.
With Lessons from the Screenplay, I make videos that analyze movie scripts to examine exactly how and why they are so good at telling their stories.
Part educational series and a part love letter to awesome films, Lessons from the Screenplay aim to be a fun way to learn more about your favorite films and help us all become better storytellers. I’ll be releasing new videos every couple of weeks, and taking suggestions about what scripts I should look at in future episodes.
