Short answer, Yes. AND great video! It's comprehensive in the approach to solid advice for a new screenwriter, regardless of age. Approaching the product you wish to create from a different ideological perspective is the point. If you want to be an architect (for instance) it's probably because you like all the beautiful buildings. That's great, but there's a LOT more to architecture and design, especially buildings that have to support people instead of kill them, than beautiful archways and wrought iron decorations. Just fancifully peppering everything with winding columns and gracefully balanced arches isn't going to support a monumentally expensive structure. It won't sell it to an international corporation as a head quarters, because very similarly to movies, all those internal parts and spaces HAVE TO DO SOMETHING... not just "look pretty". So just like architects have to learn about material sciences, using trig' to disperse working loads over structures to foundations and the limits of balance while maintaining a magnificent aesthetic value to the whole project, Screenwriters have to learn about plots and sub-plots, symbolism and the transfer of information through subtleties as well as the overt transfer of spoken words. Every moment of the show or movie HAS TO DO SOMETHING... not just "look great". It's even amazing that film makers ABSOLUTELY MUST devote skills to the audio tracks. It would seem work in cinema and television would be devoted entirely to the visual medium, BUT put the greatest quality of graphic presentation to a HORRIBLE audio, and you will either get a LOT of complaints, or you'll watch the viewers vanish with the efficacy of ninja masters... without so much as a trace... just "pffft". Great Audio CAN save a poor picture with terrible visual quality... bad effects or almost no effects at all from post. Bad Audio WILL absolutely bury an otherwise STELLAR work... top of the line visuals, best graphics on the market, and even top notch writing and directing... Fizzle the audio, and it's dead in the water. BUT the "casual noob" wouldn't originally expect that. It won't matter how many times you've changed a TV channel because the sound "went off" or "for that constant annoying fizzle-bop BS"... You wouldn't expect so small a thing to be the difference between going up in the ranks and charts and evaporating from existence. I'd even have to thank Cinefix for several of their "Top 10 Best..." list-videos for that tidbit... AND I've changed the TV over that "stupid fizzly-bop BS" probably a thousand times, myself. (lolz) Taking the time and energy to focus on different facets of what you want to do will only reinforce your ability to do them. Rather like learning to draw something by copying photographs or tracing illustrations and so forth... Studying the details will give you the tools (mentally) to build on whatever you've been interested in. ;o)

Very helpful advice especially on the part of finding your voice. You can't be a sitcom writer and do well if your true passion are in features of seasonal series.

Write something that is high-concept and that only you can write. Something that 100,000s of screenwriters have yet to think of and execute on the page. High-concept is the way to go.

I’m 22 and I’m currently looking into branching into this field. Will be going to LA in Feb next year to get more of an insight into this (As I think LA is the best place for this career) but for now just doing online research!

It really does help. I picked this up on my own, writing down pieces like Manchester by the Sea and Finding Nemo. It especially helps you understand the Acts/Sequences/Scenes/Beats. The step by step approaches in character change due to rising conflict and their decisions to act.

How about we google the top movies of 2018 and see what gems come up? I, Tonya comes in at 101. I know that's a cheap shot (get it) but it was made. Jurassic World, hardly cinema's best. Deadpool 2, Ant man, Hotel Transylvania 3, etc. Sure some good movies were made too but you get the idea, it's not all gold and timeless classics. So how is it these less than gripping cinematic Super Troopers 2 get made? After all, someone got paid to write these.

as someone who likes to write action... it's easier said than done. Look at *Just Write's* video on mad max fury road. There are a lot of details added that aren't in the script. Here is that video. kzitem.info/news/bejne/mqtsqquAiKVnY2k
