You’ve got an idea for the next great screenplay. Maybe you’re just getting started or perhaps you’ve spent time with other screenwriting books, and you have your hero’s journey, plot twists, reversals, and cat-saving moments all planned out. Either way, what stands between you and an amazing finished script are the blank pages that you must fill with engaging and unforgettable scenes. So how the heck do you do that? SceneWriting will show you.
SceneWriting is dedicated to teaching screenwriters the craft of writing great scenes. It stands on its own as an instructional guide and pairs well with any screenwriting text focused on larger structure. Every section of every chapter concludes with an exercise designed to help scenewriters develop and improve a scene in-progress. SceneWriting’s three-part approach includes Planning, Drafting, and Perfecting. Planning (Part I) is where scenewriters create the foundations for their scene by identifying character goals, motivations, obstacles, and approaches to navigating those obstacles. Planning is also where scenewriters identify the setting and begin to explore theme. Drafting (Part II) is where scenewriters learn the fundamentals of scene description and dialogue, multiple techniques for engaging the reader, and write the first full and properly-formatted drafts of their scenes. In Perfecting (Part III) scenewriters revise their scenes considering the ideal page length, hiding obvious exposition, creating convincing and naturalistic dialogue, and making the final reading experience as evocative and effortless as possible. They also learn how to solicit and effectively incorporate reader feedback into revisions. The process detailed in SceneWriting can be used over and over again by novice and experienced screenwriters alike.
