I’m going to be 30 soon and I always felt like writing stories that’s been in my imagination since I was 14. I’m finally going to attempt to create it but I have no intention of others reading it. I just need to write it and get it out for myself
As someone who is working on writing a novel, I always enjoy watching your videos because you delve into the storytelling part of writing, which make it useful not only for screenwriting but also for anyone who wants to convey their art through storytelling(video game, novels, etc...) so thank you.
I've read a lot of books on screenwriting and they're helpful, but your approach of understanding stories as important contributions to being people goes beyond just writing and meeting benchmarks for a proper screenplay. I agree wholeheartedly with this approach.
Me whilst listening to this: Ears-taking in Tyler Mowery's view on writing. Brain-generating ideas for my story. Eyes-deciding to leave a comment about how this guy should create a third channel about how to get subtly buff for a new podcast. I'm not sure if anyone else has experienced his phenomenon, but I do my best thinking whilst half listening to a video of someone talking intelligently about the subject I'm thinking about, especially if it conflicts with what I'm thinking.
I definitely feel that way about things I will read or listen to. It gets you in the mindset to wander around and do some thinking on your own. Which is what I hope I can bring to people with this podcast!
Well you’re off to a great start. I had a good chuckle when you said that you thought the theory of every person taking away something different after viewing a story, is wrong. Up till now I had always taken it to be a given, since every person’s unique experiences and mindset made would make it impossible to express something exact. Then you were just like “nope, that’s just a badly told story”.
Independent thinking is powerful for a writer and for humans. To be objective and rationale. Not just blinding following the morality of the world but coming to your own philosophical beliefs based on objective analysis and your own code of conduct. I believe this makes a person more stronger in themselves because they are not slaves to the world and not deluded by false-reality They can see things as it. Very much appreciate you starting this podcast.
I've been a game programmer my whole life and I always wanted to write my stories but I never understood how, I always got stuck, your videos really set me going and I feel like I can actually finish the story this time.
Awesome man really glad you’ve decided to pursue this , can’t wait for more. I’ve been watching you for a while now and just wanted to say your content and work is very helpful to myself and many others , keep going.
I am gonna download all your podcasts and listen to them whenever I can. This is so amazing!!! The deep thought these podcasts put me into is exactly what I needed for my writing. Thank you so much!!!
We need to get you a Shure SM7B mic, a CloudLifter signal booster, a Focusrite audio to digital converter and a mic stand. Your voice is more than 75% of a podcast. And you have a fantastic voice. Cheers.
This youtube feature of What Is The Writer's Mind with Tyler Mowery The Writer's Mind Podcast 001 has some emancipating discussions/examples. I also enjoy how he shares some writing ideas to help get the writing creative juices flowing.
It's an interesting concept for a podcast. It is the sort of thing that used be called "salon" discussions. Intellectuals used to discuss the conflicts-of-life philosophies for hours in the living room. We don't see these discussions anymore these days, and worse we don't see movies that trigger these discussions anymore. As for interpretations of movies, I believe there should be a maximum of four (pro-pro, pro-con, con-pro, con-con) and the writer should aim to focus his story in such a way that there would be no more than four possible interpretations.
Call me judgmental, but my initial reaction, when I saw this guy, was: "Oh shit! A pretty boy with a manly voice who's got brains. I wonder what his flaw is? 'Cause obviously we all need to have those in order to be human. Otherwise, it's just called a Greek statue." Though, I put that comment in quotes for a reason, obviously joking. Edit (30 seconds later, upon proofreading my comment): Already found his flaw! He is alone. He is sitting there, alone in his room, unable to give his podcast an engaging DIALOGUE, i.e. between TWO persons who are equally interested in writing. THAT is the flaw with this podcast, I found so far. I appreciate everybody who takes an interest in writing! xD
I don’t know if you are still reading these comments but I was wondering about your opinion on something. I might be missing something, but I feel like your advice in this video is great if you want to write the next Great Gatsby or Macbeth or something they still read in schools but there are so many successful series that when I think of them I don’t think of any one underlying theme, I just think of the characters and their journey. Stories like Harry Potter or Star Wars strike me like this, just stories for the sake of entertainment, not for sending a message really. I know you cited Sci Fi as a usual culprit of just getting caught in concept but do you have thoughts on these sorts of stories? Would you say they do follow the advice in this episode in smaller ways that I’m just not noticing or are these tips supposed to be more specific to classic-literature-esque stories?
10:18 I met way more often people who think the opposite. Arguing that if the theme was implemented by accident then the writer doesn't deserve any credit. Which is just as bad.
Gosh! Too many words…too much talking….taking a LONG time to get to the point! Also, maybe naming specific movies that go with the examples you are bringing up so that we can quickly grasp what you are talking about? Thanks

Fact✨💯
It's more of feeling than thinking.
As a current filmmaker, I think you should be an instructor. There is something about you that resonates with aspiring writers. Love your stuff man.
Thanks for the kind words!
Such level of maturity at such young age!
I wish more people talked about this aspect of writing.
Let's build a community of people who do!

I love how everytime I watch a Tyler Mowery video, I recognize some flaws in my screenplays and am forced to rewrite.
This introduction resonates with my mind so much
I've read a lot of books on screenwriting and they're helpful, but your approach of understanding stories as important contributions to being people goes beyond just writing and meeting benchmarks for a proper screenplay. I agree wholeheartedly with this approach.
A podcast dedicated to the very core of storytelling. I'm in.

This is the perfect writing podcast for me and will 100% be very helpful 😃

Absolutely.

Glad I could help!
I love the diversity of screenwriters, novelists and game developers all honing their craft together and making the art of the future!
Can’t wait
One of the best writing channels out there!!
Good luck with the podcast. I've always found your videos very practical and clear, with a minimum of snake oil bullshit involved.
So I'm like, it's 2022, I need a podcast on writing to listen to. And here I am. :)
Kind of excited for this
And so it begins!!!
Awesome man really glad you’ve decided to pursue this , can’t wait for more. I’ve been watching you for a while now and just wanted to say your content and work is very helpful to myself and many others , keep going.

Invite Jeff Lyon (teacher UCLA, Stanford) on the pod. He’s got a lot of deep stuff to say about story.
The audio quality is fantastic ✈️
Thank you!
Wonderful. Listening now.

@@thewritersmindwithtyler Good to know. I'm slightly surprised though. I'm an INFJ. Love your insights.
Nice
Tyler, you need to get the volume consistent between episodes. I am sure listeners don't want to have to adjust volume from one to the next.
Call me judgmental, but my initial reaction, when I saw this guy, was: "Oh shit! A pretty boy with a manly voice who's got brains. I wonder what his flaw is? 'Cause obviously we all need to have those in order to be human. Otherwise, it's just called a Greek statue."

What are your thoughts on the story grid editing process?

Can a single story deal with more than one theme/philosophical conflict?
Also the channel only has episodes 1 and 3. Is that a typo or something?
The other episodes are on patreon
@@GM_Sanjit_Ramesh yeah I realised that. I think they should be numbered 1, 2, 3 and so forth separately, it just makes it easier to keep track.
