How to Collaborate Well

“Different people are going to bring different things to it. I don’t care who you are, if you give me a line in my movie that makes it better, I love you. That’s fantastic. That’s great!”

This quote came from Frank Bocchino, a writer, marketing director, graphic designer, scriptwriter, and script doctor. In this clip from episode 55 of our podcast, Frank talks about how it’s best to collaborate with others who have different perspectives on a project. 

Listen to this episode again as we discuss why it's important to love what you do as a writer and creative, why writers groups are important, the balance between being a writer and editor and some great advice on keeping your scripts concise, and why you should talk to other creatives in other mediums so you can get a 2nd opinion from people who have a different perspective from you.
