In this video, I'll share the secret science behind writing bestselling books. It's also about screenplays that stand the test of time. We're diving deep into story structure. Successful authors and screenwriters have used it for generations. I'll break down three common story structures. They are: Three Act Structure, The Hero's Journey, and the 15 Save the Cat Beats. We'll analyze examples, such as "Harry Potter," "The Matrix," and "Star Wars." We'll also look at "Everything Everywhere All At Once." This will show how these structures work in practice.
