Frank Hannah on Building a Story Through Rewrites

You’ve finished your first draft. Now what? In this episode of Working Title, Mark sits down with screenwriter Frank Hannah (The Cooler, Alpha’s) to break down what happens after draft one—when feedback starts coming in and the real work begins. They cover who to trust with notes, how to tell what feedback actually matters, and how to shape your script without losing the core of your story. If you’re in the rewrite phase, this is your roadmap forward. Working Title: From Paper to Screen is produced by Merrick Studios and hosted by Mark Elias.
