Product Description
In the grand tradition of Strunk and White's Elements of Style, Paul Argentini presents an essential reference master-piece in the art of clear and concise principles of screenplay formatting, structure and style for screen-writers. Argentini explains how to design and format manuscripts to impress any film school professor, story editor, agent, producer or studio executive. The ultimate quick reference guide to formatting a screenplay-no book in shorter space, with fewer words, will help screenwriters more than this persistent volume. Includes a playwrite chapter for structure and format and an updated list of literary agent contacts.
From the Author
Information all screenwriters need.
It must look like a screenplay; read like a screenplay; be a screenplay to have it seriously considered a screenplay--no matter how great the story. This book will show you the latest protocol for writing the selling script. All writers of screenplays need the elements of screenwriting style readily available. A copy within reach will be a boon! The same goes for a stage play. Playwrights will find correct formatting included in a special section. With the availability of this book, I now can use my time to get back to fishing instead of answering e-mail because everything that needs to be known about screenwriting style is within these pages.
