  • Scrivening (.Pdf)
    Windows Scrivening Things I’m Martin Rinehart, a professional writer (software how-to) and a newbie novelist who just taught himself to use Scrivener. These are Things I needed to learn to understand Scrivener. I’m jotting these down before I forget what it was like to learn Scrivener. Knowing these Things may flatten your learning curve. At least a little bit. 1 0) Scrivener for Windows Things These instructions are specific to Scrivener for Windows. Got a Mac? Sorry. I don’t. Want a book? Scrivener for Windows cannot be learned from a Scrivener for Mac book. The products are different. 1) Binder Things a) It’s too small. You can’t tell the icons apart. You’ll need to understand those icons when you get to the Compiler. While you’re learning try 18pt type: Tools / Options / Appearance / Fonts,General / Binder / Select_Font / 18 Take that slow. It will make sense. (Nice job hiding it, no?) b) Your Manuscript folder is special. Put your manuscript in it. Front Matter goes in “Front Matter.” Your Manuscript folder may be named “Draft.” You may rename it if you like, but that doesn’t change it’s special relationship to the Compiler. c) The Compiler uses three icons from the Binder: Easy enough to tell folder from the others. Easy enough (far too easy!) to not distinguish text group from text. Note that in the Binder the Folder icon may have a funny little addition. The Compiler doesn’t care: 2 The ‘top text’ (my name) is text that you write directly in the folder.

  • Writers Professional Materials
    Writers Professional Working Materials INTRODUCTION Writers professional working materials and the tools of the trade – they are considered the sales tools for a writer’s work. These will be the most utilised materials when trying to establish yourself as a scriptwriter as either writer-for-hire work or when pitching your own original idea. No Producer or Production Company (locally or internationally) will ever read a script, treatment, logline or synopsis – unless a pre-existing relationship is in place – unsolicited. This means writers first need to be invited to send through materials in the manner that best suits that Producer or Production Companies. This helps to protect copyright or a copyright claim for both parties. It is also important to note that in international territories only Agents are able to introduce writers to Producers and Production Companies. Below each header you will find links to helpful sites and further information. As a screenwriter your job is to write, research, write, learn, write, and adapt. Google is your friend and before you ask Facebook for the answer, ask Google! Or check out the NZWG website for information on knowing your rights, contracting, useful facts and upcoming events. Before going any further, the below link is a must read for newcomers and is aimed at people applying for early development funding. It’s put together by Screen Australia, and is a very basic ‘How To Guide’ for feature filmmakers on application materials included in their application process – logline, synopsis & treatment. https://www.screenaustralia.gov.au/getmedia/ae5708a4-05d9-4db0-b5fb-4f999fdfed57/What-is-a- synopsis.pdf Below are all the materials broken into parts, starting with how to format your works.

  • Screenwriting I Film-M213-002 Engl-A313-002
    SCREENWRITING I FILM-M213-002 ENGL-A313-002 Course Term: FALL 2020 Course Location: ONLINE Class hours: TU/TH, 3:30-4:45 pm Instructor: Miles Doleac, PhD Office Location: CM Building 412 Phone: (Office) 504-865-3430, (Cell) 601-329-1630 Email: [email protected] Office hours: By appointment “A screenplay is a story told with pictures, in dialogue and description, and placed within the context of dramatic structure.” -Syd Field REQUIRED TEXTS: Field, Syd. Screenplay: The Foundations of Screenwriting, rev. ed. New York: Bantam Dell, 2005. McKee, Robert. Story: Substance, Structure, Style, and the Principles of Screenwriting. New York: HarperCollins, 1997. Rogan, Michael. Screenplay Format Made (Stupidly) Easy. Scriptbully, 2018. COURSE AIM: This course is intended to introduce students to the craft of screenwriting, and, in broader terms, the art of storytelling. In doing so, our focus will be the following: 1) Hollywood paradigms and brilliant scripts that defied them 2) classical dramaturgy, mythology and universal forms: how age-old tropes have been assimilated and appropriated by Hollywood 3) Movie writing as a “combination of art and science” (to borrow Field’s phrase): techniques, tricks and the search for a subject 4) what makes compelling characters and dialogue 5) formal or “traditional” screenwriting structure. NOTE: I place “for- mal screenwriting structure” last in my litany of focus points, because, although important to always keep in mind, the “rules” of screenwriting are often and often quite effectively violated. YOUR CHARGE: By the end of this semester, you will have written 15 or so pages of a NEW screenplay, a self-contained short film.
