Living in Crime Alley by @RobAylingFilm is not only a fantastic #shortfilm but a wonderful #Batman film that deserves its place in the cannon. You can watch it here: youtu.be/KMZhv92mb7I. Please share where you can 🙌🏻

Reposting, revised: I would not presume to suggest what categories should occur during commercials on Oscars night, but, please: Cinematography & Editing are at the very heart of our craft. They are not inherited from a theatrical or literary tradition: they are cinema itself.

Breaking down No Country For Old Men - a great little masterclass on how to create a compelling story that challenges the audience to connect the dots and participate in the storytelling. #screenwriter #writers #filmmaking @michaeltuckerla youtube.com/watch?v=KADoPX…

Agreed, but I absolutely LOATHE the term “untested”, which is a relatively recent way the film industry has come to refer to original content. Unlike the word “original” which is positive, “untested” sounds risky, potentially dangerous. STAR WARS was “untested” once.

Never write a scene that's merely a flat, static display of exposition. Strive for this ideal: to create a story design in which every scene is a minor, moderate, or major turning point. #writingtips #amwriting

Writing for me is all about process, routine and discovery. Keep writing, keep cutting and keep on learning. A great little podcast by exceptionally good writers -15 min long episodes on the art of writing #writer #screenwriter #writerslife writingexcuses.com @BrandSanderson
