Excellent suggestions. What particularly stood out to me was step six. Where you mention how the supporting cast "support" the depiction of the main character...they are facets or reflections of the main character. This was probably the clearest explanation of the purpose of supporting characters I've heard, yet. Thanks. This will really help me with my short films.

I’ve found your channel by looking for a Filmic Pro + DJI Osmo 3 video and now I’m binge watching all of your videos. Of course I subscribed. This is so good.

[@rasal-ghul9859]

Once again thank you. Best explanation I've heard for how to write a compelling story.

[@SiHorrocks]

[@frogc.]

So underrated

[@keitheckert4759]

Wow, thank you for this!!!

[@dyuan]

holy crap this is helpful

[@joaomestre2584]

Awesome insights regarding the "but" and "therefore" in this video. Do you think it's crucial to ask BOTH on EACH scene of my short film, or just one?

[@SiHorrocks]

That's a structure question. Each one is a turning point in your story and there will be minor and major turning points. Short answer: depends on what you want and what the story needs

[@joaomestre2584]

whats the name of the film in thumbnail?

[@cinematicjohn]

This video could easily be called the bible of filmmaking. 👍

[@yun-pg8cr]

what if the short has to last no more than 2m20s??

[@yun-pg8cr]

Also do you have any if it has no budget and has to be centered around one single person?

[@thatguynitram]

Would you help me review a script?

[@namucase93]

Your videos and a nice cup of coffee go hand-in-hand.

[@SiHorrocks]

That's how they get made too ☕
