Description

What do bad jokes, fake smiles, and status games have to do with story structure? In this episode, Jacob Krueger breaks down The Studio’s pilot to show how Matt Remick’s first few minutes on screen don’t just reveal his character, they build the entire engine of the series. You’ll learn how to dramatize want, play status like a pro, and design openings that echo across every episode.
