Synopsis

What can Edgar Allan Poe contribute to the film industry? Or Screenwriting?
Over 450 film writing credits, second only to William Shakespeare.
Mr. Poe’s Philosophy of Composition and his timeless written body of work offer a treasure of tips, devices, and methods to increase suspense, use irony, ratchet up tension and fear, and spring surprise twists.
Mr. Poe’s lessons include:

  • the economy of detail
  • the Unity of Effect
  • brevity and clarity
  • tension versus resolution
  • hope versus fear
  • symbols and subtext
  • allegories and metaphors
  • twists and rapid dénouement
  • advanced film dialogue
And of course, putting it all together into a solid screenplay.
Mr. Poe and I wish you extraordinary writing!
