The opening pages to your script matter way more than you probably think. And in ways you may not have thought about. Tim and Tony explain why the beginning of your script is about much more than just starting your story. It's about introducing yourself as a writer.

They discuss tips and things to avoid, what you don't have to worry about, and explore unintended consequences.

This episode will let you look at your script in a whole new way, and will help your writing immediately!

Tim and Tony dive into the word of devices/crutches used ALOT by writers. This time, it's flashbacks and dream sequences. They explain why they aren't as clever or useful as you may think they are, and how they can actually do harm to your script, and the impression you give to industry readers.

Plus, the guys discuss writing action scenes, and some Steven Seagal trivia.

Sex and screenwriting are similar in more ways than you might think. At least in Tim's mind.

He explains how thinking about writing in the ways you think about sex can help you gain skills in both activities. Tony listens and adds his opinions.

The most sexually charged episode of the season! There are also questions about character descriptions and Tim explains how jargon like 'emotional high and low points' are pointlessly stressful.
