Synopsis

The Art of Screenplays is a working handbook for writers with stories to tell. Addressing the key issues of creativity and craft, its aim is to connect with our natural understanding of story, to demystify the screenwriter's art, and to enable fresh, original and authentic writing. Working on the central premise that drama reflects nature and screenplays simply echo life as we know it, the areas Mukherjee discusses include: How to gather, ferment and communicate story; Understanding structure through observation; Delving into the levels of characters and the art of dialogue.
