You will learn how to think more deeply about the screenwriter's purposes, craft an effective pattern of human change, and hone your vision and process for your short screenplays. * Groundbreaking book that stresses human connection as the basis of a good screenplay-not conflict * Includes a website with short films of the screenplays which are analyzed in the book & ample exercises for practice and inspiration * Recommended by the American Film Institute!
