Dating Your Writing Partner
from Scriptnotes Podcast
John and Craig weigh in on writing partner romances, voice-y scripts, character chemistry and end-of-draft treats in this week’s listener questions. We also host a round of How Would This Be A Movie, featuring stories on treasure hunts, jailed activists, and a sports scam. We look at how these news articles would translate to film/television and most importantly, whether they should be adapted at all. In our bonus segment the guys share hacks for remembering new people and make a pitch for name tags on set.
