Paul Gulino is Associate Professor of Screenwriting at Chapman University, USA. He is an award winning screenwriter, whose book, Screenwriting: The Sequence Approach has been adopted as a textbook at schools and universities around the globe. His latest book, The Science of Screenwriting: The Neuroscience Behind Storytelling Strategies, co-written with psychology professor Connie Shears, was published in 2018.
"With a fresh take on the oft-mystifying subject of screenplay
structure, Gulino breaks some new ground in what I like to call
'screenwriteology'....the analyses are detailed, clear and
insightful....In conclusion, if you're slaving for answers about
structure, there's plenty to digest in The Sequence Approach. Bring
you appetite, and Chef Gulino will make sure you don't go home with
a hungry mind." --Dave Trueman, Script, December 2004
A very welcome update of the previous edition! Screenwriting: The
Sequence Approach analyses the most recent feature films and adds a
whole section about prominent television series. In this expanded
second edition, Paul Gulino includes a very relevant analysis of
both recent films and very popular serial dramas to reveal how they
strategically manage audience attention while delivering emotional
payoffs. The book helps writers apply the sequence approach to film
and serial screenwriting alike. Brilliant!
