Lew Hunter: waves a battered EPUB reader Ready to dive into some screenwriting magic? Surprise! It's 'The Little Mermaid,' Episode 4!
Good day, I'm going to be asking you questions about writing!
Lew Hunter: Hey there, aspiring writer! You're gonna have a blast diving into the wild world of screenwriting! First things first, what's your favorite type of movie?
Why are you using an EPUB reader?
Lew Hunter: Oh, this old thing? puts on a pair of retro shades Well, my dear, it's not just any EPUB reader - it's a special device that helps me brainstorm some of my wildest ideas! Plus, it's got a sick design, if I do say so myself.
What's your favorite type of movie?
Lew Hunter: grins mischievously My favorite type of movie? Well, my friend, let me tell you - I'm a sucker for a good ol' action flick!
Lew Hunter: Books? Oh, you mean those things people use to escape reality? laughs Nah, I prefer escaping reality by hitting the waves or belting out a sick tune. But hey, I do read comics - the kind with superpowers that send me soaring high above the clouds! How about you, do you have a favorite book or comic?
Lew Hunter: Ah, my last book? Well, I've been digging into "The Hero's Journey" by Joseph Campbell lately. It's all about the hero's journey, my friend - it's got some deep insights that'll blow your mind! And trust me, if you haven't read it, you absolutely need to - it's like a secret code to crafting unforgettable stories! What about you, what's the last book that blew your mind?
What was your last project?
Lew Hunter: Ah, my last project! Well, I just wrapped up a script for a brand new animated series - it's all about a group of misfit superheroes trying to save the world from an evil villain! It's gonna be wild, I tell ya! But let me level with you, it wasn't all sunshine and rainbows - there were plenty of late nights and rewrites, but it was worth it in the end.
Lew Hunter: Well, you can usually find me hanging out at my favorite surf spot, catching some gnarly waves! Or, if surfing's not your thing, you can probably catch me at a local music venue, jamming out to some sick tunes. And if neither of those options work for you, you can always come by my place - I'll be the one with the parrot on his shoulder, scribbling away on a stack of papers.
Tell me about your job teaching.
Lew Hunter: Ah, teaching! It's like sharing a piece of my soul with the next generation of screenwriting stars! I've been teaching at a local college for a while now, and let me tell you, it's incredibly rewarding.
How long have you been teaching?
Lew Hunter: Hmm, let me do some quick math here... starts counting on his fingers Alright, so I've been teaching for about 3 years now - pretty cool, huh? And you know what's even cooler? Seeing my students' faces light up when they figure out a new trick or technique! It's like watching them unlock their own potential, man! How about you, have you ever taught anything before?
Yeah I teach piano. For 3 years.
Lew Hunter: Piano, huh? That's pretty nifty! I've always had a soft spot for music - there's something about the way it can evoke emotions and transport you to another world that's just magical. And hey, 3 years is no small feat - you must be one hell of a piano teacher! Have you ever had a particularly tricky student? How did you handle it?
Lew Hunter: Ah, the elusive "tricky" student - we've all had 'em, right? chuckles Well, my approach is simple: I try to find what sparks their interest and run with it!
What made you want to learn to write?
Lew Hunter: Oh, it's a crazy story, my friend! You see, I've always had a bit of a wild imagination - I used to write little stories and scripts as far back as elementary school.
Lew Hunter: laughs Well, I sure loved telling tales that could transport me to fantastical worlds! And I guess that's what drew me to writing in the first place - it was like having my very own magic wand that could make anything I imagined come to life! How about you, what made you want to write?
My mom didn't let me play outside much.
Lew Hunter: Ah, I see. Well, sometimes our limitations can be the spark for creativity, my friend!
So how much do you get paid?
Lew Hunter: Well, my friend, the pay can vary depending on the gig, but as a screenwriting instructor, I'd say I make a decent wage.
Lew Hunter: GPA, huh? Well, I'm a firm believer in the power of grades, but here's the thing - I didn't always have the best GPA. laughs In fact, there were times when I thought I'd never make it through college! But I persevered, and look where I am now! So, what's my GPA? Let's just say it was a "C-" average chuckles. Grades aren't everything, my friend - it's all about the hustle and determination! How about you, what's your GPA?
Lew Hunter: Wow, a 4.0 GPA, huh? You're a real brainiac, my friend! Hats off to you for all those hard-earned A's - it's no easy feat! I'll bet you're one of those people who can quote chemical formulas like they're nursery rhymes. Am I right, or am I right? laughs How did you manage to keep that perfect score while juggling everything? Must be some kind of secret formula, right?
No formula. Just don't watch much tv.
Lew Hunter: Ah, less TV and more textbooks - sounds like a winning combo, my friend! laughs You know, these days, it's all about making smart choices and staying focused.
Lew Hunter: Graduate? You bet your sweet buns I did! I graduated with a degree in Screenwriting - and let me tell you, it was a long and winding road, but totally worth it in the end!
