Screenwriting : Industry facts by Clinton Oparaocha

Clinton Oparaocha

Industry facts

The world doesn't need more copied stories. It needs raw, bold, original visions.

Write what terrifies you. Build what hasn't been seen.

Don’t shrink your voice to fit a trend — expand the trend to fit your voice.

One script. One world. One shot. Make it matter.

Africa to the world — and beyond.

Maurice Vaughan

Great advice, Clinton Oparaocha! What really stood out to me is "Write what terrifies you." That doesn't just mean Horror stories. It also means personal things that writers deal with, like an addiction, flaw, or trauma.
