Coffee & Content: Writer Showrunner Teresa Hsiao On The Collaborative Effort Of Writing Comedy

Happy Sunday, Creative Army!
Have you had a creative weekend so far? I have some content here for you that is sure to get the creative juices flowing, so grab your coffee, and let's dive in.
First up, the WGA has a great interview with Teresa Hsiao, the writer behind JOY RIDE and showrunner of AWKWAFINA IS NORA FROM QUEENS. Hsiao shares the shows that inspired her work from a young age and her approach to writing comedy in a collaborative way.
Next, we're taking a look at the art of directing actors in this follow-up video from StudioBinder. From writing to casting and through to production, this video breaks down the many ways you'll work with actors and how to get the best performance for your project (when the strike ends, of course).
As always, here at Stage 32, we love to share stories and knowledge with our fellow film fans. Know someone who would love this content? Share it with them! Tag them below!
