Today, we two hopeless anime nerds are looking at what you can learn from the writing of Studio Ghibli and pre-Ghibli films.
Show, don't tell, as exemplified by Nausicaa.
Character development as exemplified in Castle of Cagliostro!
We look at examples from various films.
Also covered are: Dealing with Stakes, Story Flow and Transitions, The Deceptive Persuasiveness of Bad Ideas, and Being Good to Your Audience!
There's a lot to learn here!
