Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Second printing. Lt. shelf wear. Pages fine. In the style of Rilke's classic work, Letters to a Young Poet. How to turn a concept into a successful screenplay while learning about yourself in the process. Many of us believe we have what it takes to turn out a Hollywood blockbuster, if only we had the right tools to help us do it. Screenwriting from the Soul is that tool. It simplifies the process, and at the same time acknowledges that writing, especially screenwriting requires a great deal of patience, stamina, and faith. There are many books on the art of screenwriting, but none approaches the subject from the unique perspective of a dialogue between expert and novice. Geared to instruct the user in the practicalities, discipline, and emotional resources required to produce that winning screenplay. Written with wit and style in the form of an ongoing series of letters between a highly experienced, successful, but tired professor and a screenwriting novice, this is a heartfelt exploration of the screenwriting world that will become a mainstay of writing program curriculums across the world. Goes far beyond a text to appeal to anyone who has ever wanted to write, or understand Hollywood and the creative process. This master guide helps the reader to: gain new insights and knowledge about screenwriting and the filmmaking industry; gain the necessary skills, techniques, discipline, and mindset to produce successful screenplays; and, touches upon the crucial spiritual aspects of the craft. 255 pages.
