Have you ever dreamed of writing the screenplay for a Disaster movie? If so, then here is how some of the world's top Disaster genre screenwriters do it…and how you can succeed in this genre too.
Believe it or not, it doesn't matter how much you already know about the Disaster genre.
The information in this book will teach you:
- How to truly disrupt everyday life in the narrative world of your screenplay with a catastrophic disaster.
- Why everything you've been taught about the Oedipus complex is wrong, and how to really use this story pattern to explosive effect in any Disaster genre screenplay.
- How to tap into three fundamental human anxieties that none of the screenwriting "gurus" ever discuss.
- The real reasons why and how the most famous memory Disaster movies succeed at the box office - including the screenwriting behind Jaws, Titanic and The Terminator series.
- How to use cities, vehicles, animals, monsters, and storms to create thrills and chills your audience will never forget.
- Unique ideas that will have you literally "tuning in" on this genre and generating at least two new epic ideas for your screenwriting on every page.
- A simple strategy for using Google Earth or Google maps for narrative world-building in your screenwriting.
- How to unlock the major conventions of the Disaster genre for massive effect in your screenplay.
- Lists of Disaster genre clichés and instructions on how to avoid them.
- Two secret ways that pro screenwriters use concepts like destiny, fate, and chance to please audiences around the world.
- And much, much more....
The ideas in this book have been used by real screenwriters of major blockbusters - whether they realize it or not. Disaster Genre Secrets for Screenwriters distills their mastery for you and is here to serve as your screenwriting guide.
Don't worry! None of the ideas and techniques in this book are rocket science.
Frankly, if you can watch a Disaster movie, you can write one. But it'll only be as good as the deep human needs you're able to satisfy through theme, imagery, archetype, characterization, and effectively structured plot.
Plus, everything you'll learn in this book applies to every other genre, either directly or indirectly. And with a little imagination, you'll find that these ideas connect to real life too (which we all know is exactly what most screenwriting needs).
But there's really no time to lose.
Every day that you are not using these ideas in your Disaster genre screenwriting, you are stealing from yourself the joy of writing a Disaster movie that will entertain audiences around the world as a result of your newly enhanced screenwriting mind.

"Writing is structure,” William Goldman said, but too often aspiring writers plunge into their work without grasping this fundamental principle. Story structure is one of the most important concepts for a writer to understand - and ironically, one of the least frequently taught. In this book, New York Times best-selling author William Bernhardt explains the elements that make stories work, using examples spanning from Gilgamesh to The Hunger Games.

How do master storytellers compel us? There have been many attempts to understand what makes a good story, but few have used a scientific approach. In The Science of Storytelling, Will Storr applies dazzling psychological research and cutting-edge neuroscience to our myths and archetypes to show how we can tell better stories, revealing, among other things, how storytellers - and also our brains - create worlds by being attuned to moments of unexpected change.

How many times have you gone through something and said “I could write a book about this!”? Now is the time to stop doubting and start planning! Just as every great meal starts with a recipe, every epic novel starts with an epic outline. But is an outline really necessary? Can’t you just wing it? Isn’t all that time on an outline better spent on actually writing? And doesn’t an outline just pour water on that spark of creativity? That’s what you may have heard…until now! Writing is like The Hare and the Tortoise. Slow and steady will always beat quick and careless.

Humans are storytelling animals. Stories are what make our societies possible. Countless books celebrate their virtues.

Storytelling, the very tradition that built human civilization, may be the thing that destroys it.

alaxy. Humanity was slowly making their way out from Earth to the planets and asteroids of the Solar System, exploring and mining and founding colonies. The mining ship El Cavador is far out from Earth, in the deeps of the Kuiper Belt, beyond Pluto. Other mining ships, and the families that live on them, are few and far between this far out. So when El Cavador's telescopes pick up a fast-moving object coming in-system, it's hard to know what to make of it. It's massive and moving at a significant fraction of the speed of light.

Historia
The Story Grid is a tool developed by editor Shawn Coyne to analyze stories and provide helpful editorial comments. It's like a CT Scan that takes a photo of the global story and tells the editor or writer what is working, what is not, and what must be done to make what works better and fix what's not. The Story Grid breaks down the component parts of stories to identify the problems. And finding the problems in a story is almost as difficult as the writing of the story itself (maybe even more difficult).
