Great interview, Jose’! One question from a rookie…
Where can I find the components of the various genre’s?
Thanks,
Bob
Hi Bob,
Blake’s book “Save the Cat Goes to the Movies” has a more detailed explanation of each genre, including the three key elements that define each one.
Hope that helps!
Guy
Thanks, Guy. I’ll check it out…

I would appreciate the content of this podcast much more if I could have it in text form. The reason is I’m French, I Read English easily but I have difficulties listening to people speaking, the more when they are speaking very quickly with an american accent.
How could I get the text transcription, if possible.
Thanks,
Mark
Really useful. Fantastic.
Thank you for the wonderful insight. I was just curious if you were intending on further updating the podcast on iTunes? Right now there’s just the 12 Years a Slave and Frozen. Thanks.
Hi Ryan,
We’re working on our iTunes feed. This and today’s podcast should be there. Stay tuned — and thanks for asking.
I enjoyed the podcast very much! Thanks.
