This workbook, a companion to The Scriptwriter's Handbook, provides students and scriptwriters with a step-by-step format for adapting the media writing process described in The Scriptwriter's Handbook to a specific informational or training program assignment. It can be used with group or individual study situations, for a range of media applications.
General activities in the workbook help teach specific writing principles; project worksheets provide a guide to help writers develop their own material and work toward a finished shooting script. Many general activities are also suitable as catalysts for classroom discussion, and have been tested by the author in workshops.
Both beginning and skilled writers will benefit from the workbook's thorough step-by-step instruction, hints and exercises for collecting information, analyzing the assignment and audience, conceptualizing and visualizing, drafting and revising. Among the topics covered are: interviewing; and using resource documents; developing audience profiles and content outlines; concept development; television treatments; pacing, style and tone; incorporating feedback; polishing; and client approvals.

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
