Way 3: Choosing Concepts Wisely

We hope you had fun coming up with more dramatic concepts yesterday. Now it’s time to take a look at the three most common conceptual mistakes that many screenwriters make when choosing concepts to develop.

“I made mistakes in drama. I thought drama was when actors cried. But drama is when the audience cries.” — Frank Capra —

OBJECTIVE: To make sure that you are choosing your concepts wisely.

ADVICE: The number one rule that screenwriters need to follow when choosing their next project is simple — you must choose, but choose wisely.

#1 Writing Your Verison of Popular Movies #2 Chasing Trends #3 Not Doing Your Research

EXERCISE: Let’s take a look at your drama concepts that you now hopefully have rolling around in your head.

ASSIGNMENT: Now that you have 5 one-sentence premises, let’s take a look at them through the eyes of what we just discussed.
