Hello and welcome to episode 5 of The Closing
Credits Podcast. Today, I had the great pleasure of speaking with
Gary Whitta. He's a screenwriter best known for Rogue One and The
Book of Eli, he's written for Star Wars Rebels, Telltale's The
Walking Dead video game, and his own novel, Abomination, and a
comic book series, Oliver. In this episode, we talk about writing
for video games, how does a script go from paper to screen, the
writing process, how does one write compelling characters audiences
can sympathize with, and dealing with creative heartbreak during
your journey into screenwriting.
