Why writers need to improve their character introductions

Examples of movie intros we love

Copyright - should you copyright your script before sending it out

Why you should join a writer’s group 

Asking for honest, constructive feedback from your network

The importance of log lines

Why most production companies don’t offer health insurance 

Exploring public healthcare exchanges



Memorable Quotes

“There’s a million reasons to put a screenplay down after a couple of pages. The reason to keep reading is because you’re interested in the characters.” [10:00]

“Your first twenty pages are about developing a relationship with the reader and having them trust you and be confident in you. Typos break that ability to have that trust.” [24:14]

“The most important people to you in your career are people one step down and one step up the ladder from you.” [40:10]

“The problem with union benefits is the volume of work you have to do to keep them.” [48:57]
