641 - What Characters Know Scriptnotes Podcast

    • Cine y TV

John and Craig investigate what characters know and how we know they know what they know. It’s something that can be as confusing as that last sentence was, but they offer clear guidance on building informed characters, audience expectations, and how to get everybody on the same page.
We also look at how ad breaks in streaming are interrupting established act breaks. But first we follow up on AI transcription and character voice, and answer listener questions on authentic depictions and how to ask for a WGA contract.
In our bonus segment for premium members, how should you act when you meet a famous person? John and Craig have big (but well-concealed) feelings.
