Description
Deconstructing Screenplay Fundamentals is a comprehensive guide to understanding the elements, functions, and anatomy of a screenplay. By applying the steps outlined in this book, readers can thoroughly analyse a screenplay and apply these skills to their own writing.
The book explores key concepts such as theme and premise, character development, and the dramatic elements needed to construct a solid screenplay. It also delves into screenwriting techniques and tools used by professional screenwriters, including dramatic irony, reversal, and setup/payoff.
Case studies from contemporary films, including Get Out, Lady Bird, The Dark Knight, Toy Story, Parasite, and Whiplash, are used to illustrate how professional screenwriters use fundamental elements to construct, shape, develop, and tell a visual story.
