Whether it is covering movie and television premieres on the red carpet in Hollywood or shooting my own How-To screenwriting videos, I always enjoy uploading clips to my Story Maps YouTube channel.

The goal of every video is to figure out what makes a GREAT SCREENPLAY.

I started with a DIY video series named “Dan’s 2-Minute Screenwriting School,” kept short and sweet, because hey, you should be writing, anyway, right? Those grainy videos look pretty dated, now, but at the time, they were the absolute cutting-edge (not really).

My mantra is CRAFT = CAREER.  The most crucial, best, and only first step in forging a screenwriting career is to develop and master your craft.  If you can do that, you have the best chance at reaching professional success as a screenwriter.  My methodology and advice is based on reading hundreds of screenplays on the job as a Senior Story Analyst  for major movie companies and by working with hundreds of writers like you.

I hope you enjoy these clips, and if you subscribe to my channel on YouTube, you will be notified when I produce a new video.

Good Luck and Happy Writing,

Dan Calvisi
