ABOUT THE SHOW

Welcome to Robots Talk About Screenwriting! On this podcast, you'll hear screenwriting insights delivered by AI voices. (The robots!) But rest assured, the source material is all written by a human (me!).

Hi, I'm Naomi Beaty -- screenwriting consultant, teacher, and author of The Screenplay Outline Workbook and Story Structure Made Easy. I help writers craft emotionally resonant, structurally sound screenplays through consultations, workshops, and practical resources.

I've been writing about screenwriting online since 2018, and this show features "discussions" of my articles, brought to life by synthetic hosts.

I feed the robots only articles I've personally written. And I'll include extra notes when something needs clarification. But, just like when you listen to humans, don't take anything you hear as gospel. As always, take what's useful, leave the rest, and keep writing!

This podcast is simply meant to be a fun, low-key way to share some of the hundreds of screenwriting articles I've written in a new format. Perfect for listening on a walk or while you're brainstorming your next big idea.

-- NAOMI'S NOTES ON THIS EPISODE:

I got a kick out of Gal Robot's love for the movie Warrior. 😂 But right about that time, there's a strange voice glitch in the audio.Guy Robot give the word "protagonist" a weird pronunciation at one point. Pro-TAH-gonist. Guess he was feeling fancy. 🤷I think the way the robots describe the 4 types of conflict might be a little hard to understand, so for this episode in particular, I highly recommend reading the original article: https://writeandco.com/articles/story-conflict
