Screenwriting 101: Daniel Kunka

“No matter what the concept is, no matter what spectacle you put out there, nobody cares if there’s not an empathetic way into the story and you only get that with the characters you tell the story through. Every big story idea has to be followed up with ‘why is this concept important to someone.’ It’s the writer’s job to find that someone and then figure out how and why that person relates to the audience and then go about building your story around that.”
