WGF Library Script Breakdown with EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE’s Daniel Kwan & Daniel Scheinert

What better way to understand the mechanics of film and TV writing than to sit down with a writer and break down a script with them? In this virtual event series, the WGF Library team gathers acclaimed writers for the ultimate script dissection. Hosted by WGF Librarians Javier Barrios and Lauren O’Connor, we’ll take a painstaking look at scripts on screen to analyze and learn about description, dialogue, character voice, text on screen, plus much more. For this session, co-sponsored by the WGAW Asian American Writers Committee, we welcomed Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, collectively known as Daniels, the writers and directors of Everything Everywhere All at Once. They take us through the pages of their screenplay and share their approach for crafting the original story.
