0:00 - Intro
1:05 - 01 - Contemplate a lot of different ideas before you commit to a project. It’s like falling in love, you flirt and date a lot of different people, but then you meet the right one.
1:59 - 02 - If you wrote something and it doesn't work for any reason, put it away for some time. When you come back to it, take the best parts and write a new story.
2:46 - 03 - Think long and hard before you decide whether to write a tv series or a movie. Seeing your screenplay come to life in a movie theatre is still once in a lifetime experience.
5:10 - 04 - Make sure your story is PLAUSIBLE. You can make up whatever story rules you want to. But once those are set, the story must be credible WITHIN those rules.
6:08 - 05 - Let your characters LIVE. DISCOVER them as you’re writing them. That is the process Tarantino used for one of his best characters ever written Hans Landa.
10:16 - 06 - Always keep all the characters you write saved separately in your database. You can always use a complete character or part of a character for another screenplay.
11:41 - 07 - Create a detailed backstory for the character, but don’t reveal everything to an audience. Let the audience fill in the blanks themselves and create their own movie.
12:59 08 - Think of suspense as a rubber band. As long as the rubber band can stretch, the more suspenseful it is. The opening scene in Inglourious Basterds is more suspenseful at 22 minutes than it would be at 8.
14:13 - 09 - If the scene you’re writing is working and keeps holding up and it ends up being 40 pages long you should keep it in the movie. That’s what Tarantino did with the basement scene in Inglourious Basterds.
12:45 - 10 - Always try to surprise yourself with your writing. The best way to keep your writing fresh is to always start at square one, like it’s your first screenplay.
18: 35 - EXTRA TIP - It’s hard work to go to that blank piece of paper and start from scratch every single solitary time. But it’s more rewarding to write your own movies. It’s the only way to keep your own VOICE.
