Welcome to the Curious About Screenwriting Network where you'll enjoy listening to fascinating film and writing industry guests who share insights from their careers and how you can take your screenwriting skills to the next level.
Shayna & Max take a look at which streaming companies are adding the most new subscribers in 2022. Shayna gushes over the new Jordan Peele movie, "Nope," but they have very different feelings about "The Gray Man."
It might makes sense in a practical way to see what movies are succeeding and to try to come up with something that mirrors that. However, that's not a path to actual success.
Max & Shayna discuss the marketability of horror comedies and the deeper meanings of Jordan Peele films. Lee Jessup reminds writers that their personal stories are important - be prepared to tell your story too!
Stand-Up comic Dobie Maxwell has lived through it all in his comedy career, from meaningful chats w/ Rodney Dangerfield & George Carlin to driving the getaway car after a bank heist (without knowing it), but he's still looking for his first UFO encounter.
Shayna & Max tough it out through COVID to bring this one to you, discussing the importance of constantly generating new screenplay Ideas & the just-announced Emmy Nominations.
You got the meeting… now what? Join Nickelodeon Executives and Nick Writing Program Alumni for a conversation about how to make the most out of a general meeting.
