Academy Originals, could we please have more in this series with screenwriters? We haven't seen a new episode in a while!

I really enjoyed this one. A lot of what Magee was saying definitely spoke to me as a writer.

If you don't have a writing time, you're always writing. This definitely resonates for someone who also has a family. It's not easy.

Have you thought about adding their occupation in the title? I'm currently just finding this collection and being a screenwriter, videos about screenwriters are the ones I want to focus on and it'd be helpful for that information to be in the title. Just a thought. Keep these coming they're great.

I watched his first film, 'Finding Neverland' and it was awesome, I know he's writing 'The Silver Chair' but I'm not really that excited for it.

This guy is writing The Silver Chair (Narnia), just look at 2:26 :)

You really have great eye sight to spot that silver chair book on his table. I can't wait to see the final result of Mr. Magee's screenplay on the big screen. The clip was truly insightful.

Ikr, I just hope that his script will stay true enough to the book, I don't mind a few changes here and there just as long as it makes sense. I especially hope that he will get my favorite scene right, the scene where Alsan talks to Jill at the edge of the cliff.

I like the stand he puts his laptop on while writing on his chair. Anybody knows where to buy one?

Is it mostly fun to spend so many hours doing it though?

I'm really interested in these movies, but I keep getting distracted by the irritating 'uplifting' music. What's the reason you are using that in these movies, because to me it's not 'uplifting'.
