Writers SCENE TO SCREEN, Ep 4 – the FUNdamentals of Formatting
Ep4: Writers SCENE TO SCREEN (in quarantine) – the FUNdamentals of Formatting
Everyone knows that format is not the fun or glamorous part of writing. But it IS the thing that will make or break your script, starting with the title page. This week’s panel not only write movies and TV shows, but they are all also screenwriting educators at the nation’s best Film Schools. We spend the next hour talking about what to do, and not to do when your script software won’t do for you. It’s a must-watch if you plan on having your script taken seriously and survive the path to production.
