I have so many ideas for movies & tv shows!
"BREAKING BAD" is the BEST….
It has nothing to do that I'm from New Mexico (US)… LOL
👍👍👍
Pilot
End a normal course of life to begin a new course and ends with a compelling question

What does this video have to do with writing a treatment?
This is an insightful video, but has absolutely nothing to do with actually writing a treatment, nor does it have any examples of treatments.
finally a tv writing series that isn't *addicted* to breaking bad
Grief
friday night lights using a film crew covering the first day of the seasons for their pilot is by far the most genius way to introduce the needs and motives of many chracters at once i ever saw
This channel is a bunch of footage and interesting pieces of movies or series while a background narrator says too much about nothing. In one word: NOTHING!
what about something like Mad Men? What dramatic question do you think they were asking at the end?
Thanks!
What if you want to write an episodic type of show that gradually builds into an overarching plot? How would you apply these rules then?
You spelled grief wrong LMFAO
Like, when you are writing a crime show that has many many elements of a case not yet federally prosecuted, doesn't that ruin the prosecution efforts? Like, let's say that someone is framed for murder, and the prosecutor's keep withholding discovery evidences and it gets to this point of the trial being poisoned by contempt bc of all the media contempt, that movie OLD is the trigger for my asking this…That is so realistically plausible, that I would think only after trial should tv shows be made. Am I wrong?
0:26 ?
I checked out after "greif".
Futurama did this same thing
"GREIF" ? What is Greif?
The ‘queen died of grief’ is sad irony
I just became a prob star recruiter. Its easier than being a front door guest services. Get that amateur webcam outta heerrrr
Question: does this work well for making a book series?
the map of the US hurt me to see Boston, MA placed at NYC
For me Breaking Bad was all time favorite pilot show.
This is truly the death of art.
