Do you like writing your ideas into organized treatments?
I like to start every article with a truism. And there’s nothing truer than how hard it is to write a great screenplay. It’s a feat that can feel like an impossible task. As a writer of many screenplays, I am always excited to test new products or strategies to help streamline my work.
Really what I want is to find the strategies that give me the best opportunity to succeed every time. What are the writing habits or tools that bring out the best in me? That showcases my voice and my skill, so I can consistently deliver when I need to crack those tough scenes?
I was excited when one of my co-workers sent me the Story Planner website. One of the things I try to practice as much as I preach on this website is outlining and planning my screenplays. Whether it’s a pilot or a feature film, you will always find me writing a treatment. and I never start anything unless I have the end scene pictured.
Well, the Story Planner is a website that aggregates all sorts of tools, from the Save the Cat Beat Sheet to the Snowflake Method chart.
