The Screenplay Lab - Trailer

This is… THE SCREENPLAY LAB.

My name’s Jeff Barker, and I’m a screenwriter. Join me as we analyze one screenplay at a time.

I’m not talking about the film… I’m talking about the screenplay. This unique literary device creates a sensory explosion, causing the reader to make a movie in our own minds.

We’re going to search for what brings the heat… Scarcity of words. Authentic dialogue. Unique narrative devices. Connecting tone to the theme. A story that doesn’t insult the reader’s intelligence but also doesn’t replace mystery with confusion.

We’ll dissect character, conflict, structure, and voice. We’ll examine not only the words on the page but also the white space as a canvas. And, we’ll discover the hidden instructions each writer gives us on how to read their individual script.

I’m a storyteller… not a critic. So, I’ll be searching for the unique beauty in each piece… what makes it sizzle.
