Why Screenwriters Must Read Scripts: The Power of Physical Copies

A Phil Svitek Podcast - A Series From Your 360 Creative Coach

In this episode, I emphasize the critical importance for screenwriters to actively read scripts as part of their craft. I discuss why immersing yourself in well-written scripts can significantly enhance your storytelling abilities and help you understand the nuances of screenwriting. I also share one of the best ways to access scripts—by getting them printed as physical books from your local library. This approach not only gives you a tactile reading experience but also allows you to study the formatting, structure, and pacing that make a script successful. Tune in to learn how this practice can elevate your writing and bring your screenplays to life. Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe!
