0073: Kids

The Screenplay Writers

Writing for kids is something every screenwriter does at one point in her or his career. Nathan and Ryan talk about the keys to making your script work for this genre and audience, including two essential Hare’s Rules: You gotta dumb it down, and kids don’t get references. They do script surgery on Ralph Breaks the Internet (Wreck-it Ralph 2), and Nathan pitches his idea “Kid Tax” in Logline Cage Match.
