The best writers in the world who ended up writing some of the greatest stories and movies of all-time started from humble beginnings. They started without any prior knowledge of storytelling or screenwriting.
So how did they become such great writers? How did they overcome their fears and lack of confidence?
Simple. They just started writing one day. One word at a time, one day at a time, one step at a time. Every day, they got better and better at their craft.
But the KEY is that you have to START.
It doesn’t matter where you are today, you just have to start and begin writing that amazing idea you have and learn how to turn it into a masterpiece.
How would that make you feel?
Before you write your screenplay, you need to understand the storytelling fundamentals that have been around for thousands of years. Your story should follow these basic storytelling principles that anyone who has ever read a story or watched a movie can relate to and understand. Most of your favorite movies and stories follow these storytelling fundamentals in order to write a compelling and captivating story.
Once you have the basic structure of your story down, you can begin writing your screenplay using the correct screenplay format. Every screenplay follows a specific format and structure so it can be adapted into a feature film.
Your #1 goal should be to simply write your screenplay from beginning to end by following a proven story structure and screenplay format.
You want to build your confidence that you have the ability to write a great story and screenplay that will help you further develop your screenplay into something extraordinary. Something you would be proud to share with the world.
Without following the fundamentals of story structure, that amazing idea you have won’t make sense to anyone. Your story will be all over the place, confusing readers and audiences, leaving them with a negative impression. I’m pretty sure, that’s not the goal you have in mind. You want to blow people away with your amazing story!
Without following the correct screenplay format, no one will read your screenplay because your story wasn’t correctly adapted into a movie. A screenplay needs to be written in a specific format designed to be seen on a screen with beautiful imagery and sound.
It won’t take months or years of learning and laboring on how to write a compelling story. You can learn these tried-and-true storytelling techniques that have been around for thousands of years in literally MINUTES or HOURS.

Screenplay Crash Course is built on thousands of years of storytelling. All stories have a form/structure. Buildings have a form/structure too, they have foundational elements that they all share. But it doesn’t mean all buildings have to look alike because they were built with the same foundation. Look around you and see all the different architecture, they were all built with a tried-and-true foundational method to building a house. The same is true with storytelling. A formula is simply a recipe that you can eventually manipulate and begin concocting your own unique formula or recipe. Following a formula does not limit your imagination, in fact, it will expand it. Because you don’t need to focus on the formula, it’s there, you trust it because its been proven time and time again.
