Craft is the rules you need to follow - or break -, but how can
you do either, if you don’t know them.
Craft gives you the questions you need to answer.
If you know the Craft, that maximizes your talents to write your
own screenplay professionally.
Knowing the craft also helps you understand other people’s work, - you
will see why they did what they did, and that will give you more experience to write
your own.
Craft radically reduces your rewriting time.
