Genre research: An idea of what I might want to write about

I started watching the first part of this documentary of what I might want to do my documentary on: writing. Watching the first bit of it this is what I was able to discern:


The core idea is to prioritize getting a screenplay written over making it perfect from the start. The advice, "Don't get it right, get it written," encourages writers to push through initial fears and complete a first draft, understanding that rewriting is where the real improvements happen. Conceptualizing the story and characters beforehand is important, but during the writing process, maintaining momentum and avoiding over-analyzing every detail is key. Setting daily writing targets and giving yourself permission to fail can lead to surprising results and a more enjoyable writing experience. It's about valuing the process of creation and recognizing that the first draft is just the beginning.
