dc.description.abstractThis report covers the process of developing, writing and revising the original screenplay "Magic for Losers." When famous child wizard Daphne Grimsby is abducted by villainous foes, her loser brother Darwin must reluctantly venture into a magical world to save her. The script relies heavily on the concepts and ideas evoked from the Hero's Journey model of storytelling. I have also structured this report on the same model, as in its own way, completing a feature length screenplay is fraught with with the same trails and tribulations.
