How to Make a Screenplay That WINS

WINNING!!

• Learned (so creative, I know)

 It is best to keep your audience on one track at a time (to keep our one track mind railed). Because if you want to study literature and then decide you want to study figure skating, you're going to have a bad time

Mix your genres. Because what's better than an Action/Comedy/Drama/Romance/Adventure movie? Am I right?

People like being reminded of things they already knew about their worlds (and things they didn't). Personally I prefer being taught new things rather than loosing more and more faith in humanity (I guess it really depends :P)

• Opinions

A lot of this can be related to animation (but that may have already been stated). Because animations are just movies with characters that are alive in our hearts and imaginations rather than reality. I'm getting a little off track here though. Either way, these things to keep in mind relate to animation just as much as they apply to video production.

It seemed like a few of the categories were a little lacking or repetitive. Number 3 is strikingly similar to number 7, where they both refer to setting in a sense. I can however, see why they are separate, because of the specifics behind each one. 3 refers to setting where 7 refers to reflecting on modern society. Forgive me if I'm wrong though.

• Curious

How does religion count as a "second problem"? It hardly fits under that category and that kind of bugged me. But hey, that's just my opinion :S
