Overview

Screenwriting: Adventure into Wonder explores the wonder of storytelling from a Judeo-Christian perspective. At its heart, the text addresses the idea that all story is born out of a broken relationship with God.  Fundamentally it suggests story is a purposeful and meaningful encounter with God for the writer and hopefully at some level for a reader or viewer of fictional stories. This screenwriting book is a guide for writers to explore the wonder of their own story and how their own life informs stories they want to tell. Act One of the text helps a writer consider the origins of story, the root of human conflict, and the personal dynamics of character all in relation to a student's own story. The backdrop for this exploration is the struggle between the image of God and the image of sinful human in every soul. Act Two lays a framework for the practical aspects of writing screenplays, from idea generation to character development to screenplay structure. Act Three hopefully propels the reader to believe the value of the stories they create because of the intrinsic value they have as a child of God. Completing the Writing Exercises students will write authentically and honestly by having them explore their own life stories.
