I watched a Ted Talk recently where the screenplay writer for many films like Nemo and Wall E. One of the most important elements to a good story is to make sure you base it off of life experiences. And such stories do not need to exactly mirror life events. Many screenplay writers create the metaphorical connections to their life events when creating stories which is often much easier than creating an entirely new story. And even when creating a new story, most screenplay writers find their experiences having a profound influence on their stories.
Another important tip to live by is "don't give 4, give 2+2." This allows for better development of suspense and character while shrouding the premise just enough to sustain interest in the film by the viewer. This strategy is used in nearly every genre of film, proving an efficient technique to create interest.
With that being said, stay tuned for my story because these tips sure are going to apply :)
