Description
Screenwriting Creative Labor and Professional Practice by Bridget Conor offers a unique analysis of the daily working lives of screenwriters. This book examines how screenwriters navigate labor markets, drawing on historical and critical perspectives, empirical data from interviews, and textual analysis. Conor's work presents an original case study of screenwriting as creative labor and professional practice, exploring both the structural and subjective features of this profession. The book also investigates who has access to screenwriting work and who is excluded from this field. By combining theoretical approaches with an interdisciplinary methodological framework, Conor sheds light on the complexities of screenwriting as a form of creative labor and professional practice.
