HOW TO WRITE A SCREENPLAY IN 2026!  .

The answer to how to write a screenplay is essentially: FIND YOUR STORY. THEN PLOT IT. THEN WRITE IT...  in this episode I delve deeper into that idea and more specifically the properties of writing CINEMATICALLY.  

This is an updated version of the episode I did in 2021, with information relevant to today's screenwriting landscape and my newfound love for alternate story structures. 

If you are unfamiliar with the terms I speak about on this podcast, consider my 16 Steps to a Screenplay Starter Kit which contains explainers on every thing I mention in this podcast plus the step by step system I use to finish a screenplay.
