Writing Screen Media

Story is supreme - character are what they do.
Story events impact the characters and the characters impact the events.
Actions and reactions create revelations and insight, opening the door to a meaningful emotional experiencefor the audience.

"Structure is character - story is what a movie, transforming a good film into a great one" Robert McKee

"You have to have total myopic devotion. Writing is such a firm commitment. Writing is about re-writing. You're never going to get there through the first draft. We were willing to - and did - throw out entire draftstwo days before taping. If it's on the page, it'll be on the stage." Max Mutchnick, Creator, Executive Producer, Will and Grace

"I'm an observer, a writer, I observe humanity and get the best of them and put them in my movies." Mel Brooks, Writer, Producer and Director
