Hey teige, have you read any screenwriting books?

Here's one that will put you on the right track:

SYD FIELDS "SCREENPLAY the foundations of screenwriting".

Also read scripts, lots of them.

You didn't get that Cole/Haag book, I guess.

Well go get it.

Just thought I'd add my book selection to this convo...

<!--EZCODE UNDERLINE START-->Elements of Style for Screenwriters<!--EZCODE UNDERLINE END--> is an excellent resource for terms in screenplays and how they are used. It's much like the Strunk & White for screenwriters...

Take Care,
Steve

Oops...thought you might want to know the author of the book I mentioned: It's Paul Argentini.

:-)

Take Care,
Steve
