    I think you are at the top of your game, the best examiner of scripting I've seen yet. Always instructive, never boring.. Your presentation skills and expertise are amazing. I learned to much from you, but I just watched the AI video and agree with almost all. I use Chat GPT to kickstart my scenes and I consider CGPT to be a collaborator and a tool to bounce ideas off of. You may be right that AI has the 'potential' to contribute to a story, but knowing how people talk is more of a human thing. Anyway, I am a fan at work on my first 'real' teleplay. So, thank you, thank you (insert another thank you) for your wonderful videos. All screenwriters should follow you!

    I'm enrolled in a film production course right now, but my learning style is all over the map.
    As a newcomer to screenwriting (or soon to be), if figure it's best to learn from all sources, styles, audible, visual, hands on, and the other, to just pound it into your mind until it becomes second writing nature.
    I'll definitely tuck this video away for sure for future and current reference.
    On a side note, I don't like YT's new page layout, if feels to cluttery.

    Get the feeling the Universe (aka The Divine) is directing me towards pulling all this madness out of my head and putting down into scripts/screenplays because I keep stumbling across videos like this one... and I know nothing about this profession. Thank you for this video. Look forward to watching more from you and learning these things for the first time.

    After beung away from screenwriting for a year or so, I needed this video to refresh my memory and it did more than that. You're so funny too and I couldn't stop laughing at "Slugline creeping in". Thanks for this. I'm a talented screenwriter too, I hope we can connect and make history.

    My favorite part of a script is the action line, the dialogue is good coz that’s what we need to understand and memorize but the action lines is what we will do to bring life to the words and director’s vision. I definitely want to learn more about scripts tho, coz i am an actor and a writer but I want to start script writing. Thank.
