Screenwriting 101: Luke Barnett

“I think you have to go make your own work. There are too many resources at our finger tips now. Creating your own content went from something you could do to something you need to do. I also think connecting is key. Almost everything that’s happened for us in the last five years stems from someone I met who knew someone else. Lastly, be nice. Everyone wants to work with their friends. No one wants to work with an asshole. Being nice goes a long way in this town.”
