Simply Scripts


What a wonderful resource Simply Scripts which can be founded at http://www.simplyscripts.com/tv_ab.html Besides being able to find these scripts and the writer who wrote them they are great sources of information on formatting and putting together scenes, and how to formulate a working product for the big screen or the little screen. In addition, teaches you a lot about screenwriting from a premise. A direct link to the index that is found here: http://leethomson.myzen.co.uk/
I would also suggest looking at the BBC’s Writersroom that is found here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/writersroom/scripts/
The view and style of scripts are slightly different in format but not that to a point of any major difference. The hope of learning the pitfalls of this craft is one that is open to a writer but may take years to master. The uses of these sites are learning tools or teaching tools not to be copied or stolen. With that said all works in one form or another have all been copy written in some shape or another.

Q: You’ve been in a lot of crime-centric shows. Were you excited to do something different on The Walking Dead ? A: Yeah absolutely. You get to play and have more fun and be more creative when you’re doing a show like this. Killing zombies — that’s what you do as a kid! Now I get to do it as a grownup. I definitely looked forward to the change and I’m having fun. Q: Your character is a medic. Do you have any skills that would be useful in the apocalypse? A: I play clarinet. I also play the drums, so I could keep the spirits lively and entertain everyone. That’s all I could do. Q: Bob is a pretty good shot. Did you do any weapons training for the role? A: None so far. When I was young, I learned to shoot, so I don’t really need any training for that. Q: You’ve...

A Comparison of Seven Story Paradigms: ®Dramatica® Syd Field Michael Hauge Robert McKee Linda Seger John Truby Christopher Vogler

A Comparison of Seven Story Paradigms: ® Dramatica ® Syd Field Michael Hauge Robert McKee Linda Seger John Truby Christopher Vogler Write Brothers ® Inc. 138 N. Brand Blvd. #201 Glendale, CA 91203 2.             How and Why Dramatica is Different from Other Story Paradigms by Chris Huntley I spent nearly sixteen years avoiding reading anything of substance by (Hollywood) story theorists such as Syd Field, John Truby, Christopher Vogler, Robert McKee and others. As co-creator of the Dramatica theory of story, I didn't want to influence my development of Dramatica so I avoided direct interaction with competing theories. In 2006 I decided to lift my self-imposed ban. I figured my understanding of Dramatica was mature enough that I didn’t have to worry about "contaminating" it by exposure to the competing theories. It was past time that I figured out how other story theories are similar and dissimilar to Dramatica...
