Nice to Meet-Cute You
from Scriptnotes Podcast
John and Craig bump into/trip over/spill coffee on the ‘Meet-Cute.’ They look at the history and mechanics of that moment when two lead characters meet each other in a romantic comedy, with advice to writers on how to keep it fresh. We answer listener questions on packing for set, branding yourself as a writer, and staggered success in a relationship. In our bonus segment for premium members, we talk about onboarding, specifically in the game Elden Ring.
