Scriptease - The Hollywood Screenwriter's Little Black Book (Paperback)

Scriptease goes beyond structure and character development, illustrating how conflict, stakes, and levels of action integrate into every successful screenplay. Scriptease uses a show-and-prove style, directly linking the screenwriting process to the Hollywood studio system. Every rule and lesson points back to the desires and needs of the reader, the important first point of contact between a script and the directors, producers, and actors.
