Thank you Ela! I'm a novelist looking to turn one of my books into a script. I've taken half a dozen classes and webinars, and read script writing books where they talk about plot, characters, story, etc. The one thing I've been searching for is exactly THIS!! ⬆ Since I've not been to film school, I've been struggling to fully understand formatting and how to use it. You provide and excellent concise message here.

[janscurlock]

Unbelievable! I took a screenwriting class in school that focused more on characters and dialogue. I feel like I grown some wings! Talk about the missing link. And it's done so effortlessly at the speed of light...you think you're not keeping up, but you are absorbing it all. Effortlessly.

For my second read
how to write script formats?

I will begin practice.

The format video will be used as a teaching guide.

Thank you for all you do. I better prepare for work.

The crash course video was awesome and a welcomed refresher! I acquired a lot of this knowledge when I first tried writing a screenplay around 2010 after I bought a videocam. Hired two actresses and made a short video out of it, but never wrote another formatted as such since, as the modest success took me into another direction for a while. But lately, Ive been desiring to pick up where I left off. Thanks in advance for whats to come!

[pammomunoz]

This is so helpful! Thanks, Ela! I've come back to it twice in a week.

[paulpasadena]

You explain it so well in just 10 minutes! Amazing!

[melodymundy]

Loved this, especially the "Text message" located in the action section. I might have had a whole semester at a film school before learning this, and here it is, in a nutshell. Thank you.

[terrypatterson]

Is there a template that I can use for screen writing Ela? The format for Screen writing differs from that of a stage play.
