"The most comprehensive and thoughtful analysis yet for professional screenwriting.”
—Diane Cairns, VP Production: Universal Pictures; Senior VP, ICM

Using examples from award winning, blockbuster screenplays, as well as from writers wanting to launch their careers, this DVD shows you how to create opening scenes that:
- Draw readers into the world you’ve created.
- Set the tone of your screenplay.
- Establish empathy with your hero.
- Lay the groundwork for character growth and theme.
- Compel readers to turn the page.
