In The Screenwriters Taxonomy, award-winning screenwriter and teacher Eric R. Williams offers a new collaborative approach for creative storytellers to recognize, discuss and reinvent storytelling paradigms that have evolved over the decades. Williams presents seven different aspects of storytelling that can be applied to any fictional narrative film--from genre and microgenre to voice and point of view--allowing writers to analyze existing films and innovate on these structures in their own stories. Moving beyond film theory, Williams offers a hands-on perspective on this taxonomy, exploring classic and recent films like Sunset Boulevard (1950) and Anomalisa (2015).
