PODCAST – La La Land

Write Your Screenplay Podcast - A podcast by Jacob Krueger

Categories:

Like poems, screenplays are written in a highly focused format, where literally every word matters. Like poems, screenplays are not just about what happens, but about the rhythm and meter of how it happens. Like poems, screenplays invoke the visual and emotional senses, creating a kind of hypnotic state of hyper-awareness, in which words on the page start to take form and shape in your mind’s eye--playing out as if they were real on that little movie screen in your head.

Like poems, screenplays exist within specific genres and forms with specific rules. And, to be successful, like poems, screenplays must both conform to and break with audience expectations in relation to those rules.

And like poems, in the best screenplays, form = function.
