I honestly never knew how hard and complicated screenwriting was until recently. Im a film student at the International Academy of Film and Television and we were tasked to go over Robert Mckee’s Story: http://www.filmschool.ph Substance, Structure, Style and The Principles of Screenwriting book. I’m not even half way through it but its obvious what he wants to convey. The essence of a good story is unchanging and universal. These well crafted stories, the ones with multiple layers that follow a proven classical guidelines for story telling are products of an age-old craft. A craft that has been developed step by step for ages. Definitely not a walk in the park!
