How do you answer the question, "What is your project about?" Recorded live at the Austin Film Festival, John is joined by Scriptnotes all-stars Pamela Ribon and Phil Hay to talk about loglines, framing, and communicating the deeper message behind your project. They also discuss working outside of the traditional studio system, including ways to find money for your film. Plus, we play a game with the audience.
