Unveiling the Secrets: How Miguel Duran Transforms Shorts into Cinematic Masterpieces

Gotcha, gotcha. So, let’s talk about the actual writing process of this. I just like to get a sense of sort of what your writing process is. So I’m just going to throw out some questions here. Where do you typically write? You have a home office. You go to Starbucks. When do you typically write? Are you morning person, late night person? Maybe you can just sort of describe what your writing process looks like.
Miguel Duran
Yeah, absolutely. So, I had at the time I was writing this, um, I had a home office. Um, I now have a second child. So, she has taken my home off my, my home office room. But that’s okay. I do have an office, uh, that I have now. And so I primarily, I write there or I still have a desk at home because I’m definitely a night person. I am definitely more productive at night. I try to be professional about it in the sense that even if I know it’s not clicking, I’ll try to do some type of work in the morning to, to get things done. But I know that when I’m turning out pages, it’s usually going to be at night, and so that’s what I do this, um, this particular project, one really helpful thing that I did with the original version is I workshopped it. So, I had some friends, we had a writers group back then. And so, every time I finished a couple pages, we were meeting each week and I was just bringing pages into this and, and workshopping it. And I think it made a big difference in people seeing those pages early on and being able to kind of edit and revise those as I was, as I was finishing the script.
