Breaking into TV Writing - Anton Schettini - Bog - Turner Publishing Company - Plusbog.dk

Breaking into TV Writing - Anton Schettini - Bog - Turner Publishing Company - Plusbog.dk

The old screenwriting motto is, “Work on your script, and the jobs will come.” This is false. A great script is only as good as the effort you put into your career, but there is little information for the aspiring screenwriter about how to break in. Even those who study TV or film in college are taught to simply “get a production assistant job.” But then what? And how do you get that job to begin with? Breaking into TV Writing contains all the crucial information left out of most screenwriting books, like: - How to get your first job in TV - What TV writing samples you need - How to break into the elusive TV writers’ room - How a writers’ room creates an episode of TV - Which assistant jobs are worth your time (and which you should avoid at all costs) Anton Schettini provides a rare insider’s glimpse of the modern-day network and streaming TV writers’ room. Here, you will find practical advice, career-path strategies, and first-hand accounts for how to establish your network, grow within it, and acquire the necessary tools to become a TV writer. The industry would love to tell you to put your head down, work hard, write a lot, and pay your dues; Schettini will show you why that hackneyed mantra is misleading, and how you can put yourself in the best position to break through the barriers and see your work on the TV screen.

Ellie Quinn has spent most of her sixteen years behind the scenes, helping her father manage a crew of four-legged movie stars. Although she longs to be acknowledged as an animal trainer in her own right, she often gets stuck babysitting actors’ personal pets and is known around the studio as “the dog sitter for the stars.” When teen megastar Kate Montgomery’s sidekick gets fired while filming a pilot, Ellie is forced to temporarily fill-in. The producers seem to be enamored with Ellie—and so do Kate’s two love interests on the show, “it boy” Logan Canfield and brand-new actor Cam Alvarez—causing trouble on and off the set. Now Ellie must decide between living the drama in front of the camera or behind it. If she quits and the pilot fails, she and her father will have to close their failing business and move to her grandfather''s lettuce farm. But if she stays on the road to stardom, it could mean losing the boy she''s fallen for—and herself—in the process. Can she save the TV show and her father''s business without losing everything else?

Spider-Man Psychology - - Bog - Turner Publishing Company - Plusbog.dk

Why didn’t Peter Parker stop the burglar who killed Uncle Ben? Are Spider-Man’s foes inherently evil, or are they victims of circumstances beyond their control?

Especially an underdog like Spider-Man . . . Spider-Man has been ranked among the best-selling superhero characters since the 1960s, often as the best-selling superhero of all time.

Earl Hamner - James E. Person - Bog - Turner Publishing Company - Plusbog.dk

Earl Hamner - James E. Person - Bog - Turner Publishing Company - Plusbog.dk

“Since Spencer’s Mountain I have followed Earl Hamner’s career with much interest and much satisfaction, having picked a winner.” —Harper Lee, author of To Kill a Mockingbird Earl Hamner, one of America’s best-loved storytellers, has never been the subject of a full-length study. Earl Hamner: From Walton’s Mountain to Tomorrow fills that gap. A native Virginian, Hamner once said, “Even though families are said to be shattered these days, and God is said to be dead, if people can revisit the scenes and places where these values did exist, possibly they can come to believe in them again, or . . . to adapt some kind of belief in God, or faith in the family unit, or just getting home again.” This vision of what makes for a whole life permeates all of Hamner’s work. It is present in the novel Spencer’s Mountain, upon which The Waltons was loosely based, and in his screenplays, such as the work he is perhaps most proud of, Charlotte’s Web. It is even present in such unlikely places as the eight scripts he contributed to the classic television series The Twilight Zone and the tales of cold-blooded betrayal and boundless ambition depicted on Falcon Crest. In Earl Hamner: From Walton’s Mountain to Tomorrow, readers will discover the integrated nature of his career, finding that there is no real conflict between the warm folksiness of The Waltons, the offbeat fantasies of his Twilight Zone scripts, the unscrupulous ethics displayed on Falcon Crest, and the myriad other novels and scripts he has written and TV programs he has produced. Instead, readers will find that there is a pervasive theme running throughout Hamner’s work, that of a man forever taking a backward glance at his roots for direction in finding what makes life worthwhile. Upon learning that this book was being written, Hamner told one of his friends, “I can’t imagine anyone wanting to read a book about me, much less write one about me.” Readers of this book will find Hamner’s doubts indeed misplaced. They will also discover a delightful individual who has enjoyed a long, accomplished career as a storyteller laboring for a worthy goal: that posterity may know of an age and a people whose legacy has not, through silence, been permitted to pass away as if a dream.

Make Love Your Aim - Eugenia Price - Bog - Turner Publishing Company - Plusbog.dk

Make Love Your Aim - Eugenia Price - Bog - Turner Publishing Company - Plusbog.dk

“Everyone today is an expert on love,” is Dr. Allan Fromme’s cryptic reflection on our current mood. With a sense of human adventure, Eugenia Price suggests in Make Love Your Aim that anyone can be “an expert on love” if he will dare to discover for himself the love God offers. “We have so sentimentalized our concept of love that it bears no resemblance to the original,” Miss Price writes. “We have taken the word of romantic novels and motion pictures and TV and perfume and men above the Word of God. The Bible declares that God is love. How closely does your concept of love resemble the love of God? We tend to judge the quality of love according to the way it makes the loved one feel. But to judge love by feeling is our big error and the point at which we turn aside from God’s original concept.” Make Love Your Aim is a companion piece to the author’s last book, The Wider Place, which was described by some readers as a “controversial challenge” to try the inner freedom God grants to anyone who want it enough to assume the responsibilities that come with it. Freedom and love are two sides of the same coin. And we can only understand them enough to practice them if we know the way God defines them. How does He do this? In Jesus Christ, the final yet continuing revelation of God’s true intentions toward all of us. Those who are familiar with Eugenia Price’s books will recognize this as a recurring theme. Make Love Your Aim develops it with imagination and versatility: “Jesus said, ‘If the Son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.’ But He was offering to wave no magic wand over our heads so that we could do as we pleased. He also said, ‘This is my commandment, That you love one another as I have loved you.’ His is the love of the Cross, without self-defense, without self-pity – and totally free.” Miss Price’s style is maturing noticeable in vigor, accuracy and objectivity. Here is a bold thinker who can write; a committed Christian who can light up experiences common to us all in a language literate and understandable. As her readers have come to expect, she does not hesitate to share a viewpoint that has rejected the hot house conditioning and automatic answers which produce impotent disciples. Rather, she invites the reader to take a bold look at the pretensions he has substituted for reality, the doctrinal escapes he has too long preferred to God himself. And there is more. There is an underlying reverence, a compassion that springs from a most personal attention to the very subject: love – Christ’s kind of love!
