This week on On Story, Chris Fedak uses his feature screenplay Ambulance, which he wrote for Universal Pictures and was directed by Michael Bay, as a case study on writing complex action sequences that drive the plot forward. Fedak expands on how to write blockbuster-worthy thrills and spectacle right on the page.

Where can I see the original Danish film?

[@scottslotterbeck3796]

To me, writing action scenes is really hard. Several pages of just action is... daunting to read

[@Madbandit77]

Not really. Write one to two sentences, describing the action. Don't be detailed about it.
