Script Tips

Time frame. Over what kind of timeline is your story taking place? For action movies they are usually set within the course of one day or even a few hours. For dramas they can be set over a few weeks, months, or perhaps years. Whatever your time frame, make sure it fits your genre and that you don't spend too long setting up backstory.


Scene Transitions. Be innovative. Cut from a slamming door to a heavy box dropped on a factory floor. Dissolve from a ticking clock in one location to a broken clock in another. Cut from a burglar getting away to a barking dog chasing a ball. In short, pay attention to detail. This may just be the icing on the cake but is important none the less.

Endings. They can make it - and they can break it! In one fell swoop you have to tie-up any loose ends and satisfy an audience's expectation. The best advice is to keep it real and inevitable. Don't just tag on a twist you haven't set up. An ending needs to come naturally. To be organic. As if it was always meant to be that way.

Write a Treatment

Writing a treatment is a skill that can help any screenwriter succeed, at any point in the creative process. There are at least three parts of getting a screenplay sold or financed. Learning to write a treatment can jumpstart a writer's career because it allows a screenwriter to communicate his or her screenplay idea in a brief but compelling way. It also can be a powerful diagnostic and creative tool. I am often asked if a writer has to actually write a screenplay, or can they just sell ideas? You can't copyright an idea, only the execution. If you have a great idea, the only way to own it is to write it. Writing a treatment is a fast way to test out an idea before the screenwriter commits to writing a script. If it isn't terrific, move on.
