Coffee & Content: Showrunner Ali LeRoi's Advice For Writers

5th Annual TV Drama SEB
Posted by Richard "RB" Botto

Happy Sunday, Creative Army!

Have you had a creative weekend so far? I have some content here for you that is sure to get the creative juices flowing, so grab your coffee, and let's dive in.

First up, we love giving writers advice on their craft and career straight from the pros (and if you're a member of the Writers' Room, you see this regularly with our Wednesday Webcasts), so this week, I wanted to share this video from the Writers' Guild Foundation. The Foundation interviews showrunner Ali LeRoi (EVERYBODY HATES CHRIS) who shares what inspires him, what advice he gives to up-and-coming writers, and more. 

Next, I'm throwing it back to Edutopia's interview with Martin Scorcese (Oscar winner and one of the greatest directors of all time). In this video, Marty digs into the importance of "visual literacy" for young filmmakers as they're discovering their own storytelling perspective. He also discusses the preservation of classic films and violence in films. 

As always, here at Stage 32, we love to share stories and knowledge with our fellow film fans. Know someone who would love this content? Share it with them! Tag them below! You can keep up with all of our content by subscribing to the Stage 32 YouTube. For more inspirational, educational, and motivational content on all things entertainment industry, follow me on Instagram and Twitter @rbwalksintoabar.

Wishing you a very happy, healthy, & creative Sunday.

Cheers,

RB
