Description

Helping you get started with short film writing, this updated edition of Writing Short Scripts provides a comprehensive guide to creating engaging scripts for films under thirty minutes.

William H. Phillips has revised and updated the first book in this series to include new original screenplays, detailed descriptions and photographs of award-winning shorts, and expanded coverage of key topics such as visualization, dialogue, settings, characters, structure, and themes.

With a focus on practical advice and examples, this book covers everything from gathering and organizing materials to writing, reframing, and formatting your script. It also includes a revised glossary, bibliography, and list of distributors for short films and videotapes, as well as useful citations and web site addresses for the short script writer.
