Action Density

from Scriptnotes Podcast

John and Craig talk action! They examine iconic scenes in classic movies to illustrate the relationship between intensity and density on the page. We also host a Three Page Challenge: Spooky Edition, our segment that invites listeners to submit writing samples for critique. This week we’re specifically looking at thrilling and chilling scenes. We follow up on the IATSE vote and negotiations. In our bonus segment for premium members, we talk scary movies, things that scared us as kids, and what’s continued to haunt us.
