  2. K.I.S.S. It By Killing Your Darlings

    NOTE that, there is an AD in between 5:00 to 6:37.



    I always told you "Keep it short and simple" but never told you how. It's by a cinematography method called "Killing Your Darlings". No, you won't have to remove your NPCs or story plots. You'll just cut the excess out of them.
