ABOUT THIS EPISODE
A slightly more traditional episode this week as we think about writing devices. What are the increasingly common tools writers use to subvert traditional, linear story telling? What can they contribute to a script? And how do we writers ensure they are being applied effectively?
Also a rather frenzied appraisal of mockumentaries!
