Mastering Screenwriting: From Shorts to Features is a complete guide to writing the modern film screenplay. Author Donald H. Hewitt draws from his many years as a working screenwriter and as a screenwriting professor at UCLA, USC, and other top film schools. “When I started teaching, I learned that I really enjoy sharing my knowledge and experience with others. Writing a book was the natural extension of this love.”
Mastering Screenwriting: From Shorts to Features provides a practical and actionable method for getting from the idea stage to a finished script. “I have always been frustrated with existing screenwriting books since they don’t really reflect my experience as a working writer,” states the author. “As a professional, you need a process that you can rely on to deliver high-quality results quickly and efficiently.” This professional methodology forms the basis for the lessons and exercises in this book. Don also offers advice on screenplay writing samples for film school applications and a detailed teachers guide for those who wish to use the book as a textbook, including self-learners. Throughout the book, you'll find information on the business of filmmaking and what it means to be a working screenwriter in the film industry, plus interesting anecdotes from his successful Hollywood screenwriting career.
- How to write a screenplay the professional way from start to finish.
- 25 exercises throughout the book that walk you through the screenwriting process.
- Special concerns for those writing short scripts.
- Up-to-date info about screenwriting format and other practical concerns.
- Film industry tips and advice about "the business."
- Guide to film school application writing samples.
- Teacher's guide for three different courses.

Descripción de la tienda
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
