The Essential Screenwriter’s Seminar
Create Characters that Live Beyond the Page
By Dr. Howard Gluss
Make your Next Murderer a Real Killer!
In this seminar we take an in-depth look at the personalities of some of the most evil characters in film. We’ll explore these psychopathological characterizations by viewing selected clips to gain a useful understanding of the criminal mind of murders, serial killers and antisocial men and women. Learn how to make all your characters psychologically consistent and believable.

Essentially the book is a fun read, and it is an accessible and fascinating way to easily gain psychological literacy! Gluss and Smith offer us an intelligent approach with which to take on several well known cinematic characters. Basically he puts them through analysis and takes us on their journey as if these characters were real people (thus the clever and pertinent title!)”.Deena Gornick “deenag”(London, England)
