Screenwriting 2010

By Illian Morrison 

Intro: 

The popcorn is purchased. The lights go dark. The curtain opens. It’s time for Action! Adventure! Romance! Horror! But long before you are screaming from your seat someplace somewhere there is a director screaming: Lights! Camera! Action! A call to action for literally hundreds of talented individuals, Actors, camera men, costume designers, set designers, craftsmen, …. And long before that, in a sanctum somewhere in the dens of quietude there is someone quite like yourself. Someone who has a story to tell. Someone who has a yarn to spin, a vision to vista. Talented. Creative. Intuitive. Someone who spent long hours and sleepless nights hammering a new journey into the human experience. An expose’ written to be transformed into visual images, creating a new world or a new way of seeing the old one… Yes, yours is the pen that will launch a thousand minds…

Accepting the 78th Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay for CRASH, Bertolt Brecht said that “Art is not a mirror to hold up to society, but a hammer in which to shape it. ...”

Storytelling is the basic of human art form. The technology of the art will change… But, storytelling… the technology of the heart will never change…

So you want to write movies.

Screenwriting 2010 is designed to help you write, produce and film your first motion picture before graduating from high school by helping you assimilate the mind of, not only the movie Writer, but the Cinematographer, the Composer, the Director, the Actor and the Agent.
