Analytical Scripting Process | P41 - Mark Murphy Director Q&A

They seem disjointed. And so it was so much more attention paid to the characters. The subplots, the hate, the word motivation. But, you know, each scene had to end with a question to keep the audience engaged. And then start of the next one had to have a purpose, that is, to address a previous question. If you've got a scene that doesn't either answer something or ask something, it's a redundant scene. So it was more analytical going through the scripting and just y so much focus on. On the minutiae, because at the end of the day, you know, the tiniest little hole will just make the whole thing fall apart.

Finally understanding that every scene serves to answer or ask something in a story made me appreciate storytelling so much more. What a revelation!
