Ian sat down with award-winning writer, director, and story instructor Brian McDonald for a conversation about fear in the writing process, the importance of theme in every good story, and how to create screenplays that do more showing than telling.
Brian’s book Invisible Ink has influenced writers and directors including Paul Feig (Bridesmaids), Jim Taylor (Sideways, Election), and Andrew Stanton (WALL-E, Finding Nemo), and Brian has taught storytelling at Pixar, Sony, Disney, Industrial Light & Magic, Cirque du Soleil, and more.
