I’ve written since I was 16, I’ve made tons of dumb little passion projects and I hope to direct and write my own films maybe to be picked up by A24 or Netflix or studios that really cater towards the stories and the characters rather than the action or profitability of it. I’m 19 now and in the USMC which doesn’t grant me much time to write but there’s this idea that’s been in my head for YEARS and I vow to put it on paper… and eventually hopefully into peoples minds. Let’s hope it happens boys
Let's hope you're writing it down. I'd hate for it to be forgotten.
Let’s goooo do ittttt

Thank you, I’m writing my first screenplay in hopes this is what can get me out there. I know it’s a big dream but I genuinely believe my story is like no other heard before, and i believe if and when I finish writing it in a screenplay format, it will do really well in todays society as a successful film.

So proud of myself because I didnt a lot that you mentioned. Thank you so much. Can't wait to start fliming soon and put everything on here.
I am trying to write a script for a student running production and this has helped me SO MUCH! You just earned another subscriber!
my gosh, it's hard to find a good enough video to teach me these things, let alone an entire channel dedicated to screen play and more. you are great, thank you.
During the live show, what I had written had me worried the episode would just be too short, like 2-3 minutes, lol, that's why I was seeming unsure of it. But I fleshed it out and was happy with the final length! Glad you enjoyed it, and good luck writing!

I just finished a screenwriting course in college, got a distinction for my script.
My tutor got into such detail on how to keep the story rolling, it's insane how difficult it is to keep your audience engaged and how suspense and tension keeps it flowing and keeps you interested.
Quick, concise and informative. Everything I need to get started for my short film. Thanks
There's so many videos about content. THIS is what I've been looking for.
THIS video shows a curious writer WHAT comes NEXT on the page.
Thank you!
DIRECT, TO THE POINT. NO NONSENSE. EXCELLENT INFORMATION. GOOD VIDEO.
A great video that helps newbies with some basic but needed info. Keep up the great work! 🙏
Finally! Thanks Indy Mogul. After watching all the others attempting to give this same information, you are the only one I will watch from now on. Time for me to start writing.
Awesome!
Straight the point, precise and clear. Amazing video !
Russell, thank you for posting this and explaining in details. You are awesome. Thank you.
I always watch this video before starting my scripts. It's a refresher course for me😎
Man! this is a gold-mine I've stumbled upon.
Thank you for staying on task and keeping the video short and concise. Tired of RUclips videos that are 90% fluff/ads and 10% content.
This is literally the most helpful screenplay video I've ever seen. Thank you so much!

Same bro. Same.
when you win it, can you give me a shoutout?
Not a formatting question, but if you do one on content, what level of detail do you put in and what level do you leave for the director? And from the other point of view, what level do director usually want?
That's a good question. I took a couple of classes in screenwriting at tertiary level. A lot of my favourite films are by writer-directors. I was intuitively inclined to add shooting details during my own attempts at writing a screenplay at that time. I'm trying to see if I can remember what advice I received in relation to this same question, at that time. Disclaimer: no professional work in this role, strictly 101.
From memory, for the purposes of those classes, the advice was essentially not to include such detail and leave such matters to the director. The suggestion I'd make, though, is to read as many scripts as you can, simultaneously familiarising yourself with the completed cut of each film. The final cut in comparison to the original script creates a combined working reference point. It shows what was scripted, and what was not on paper. It may also reveal diversions from the screenplay, meaning departure from scripted content, distinct from the visual addition alone through the shooting of the production.
One reason to suggest this is because some screenplays I read did include shooting detail, even when the writer was not a director, although this apparently contradicted the received advice. Meanwhile, I also read screenplays without such detail. As a result, my guess is that as an expectation or even an option for a writer to include detail that might otherwise fall to a director, it could depend greatly, contingent on factors like a writer's experience, relationship with the director, attachment to a project, and project timing, among other things.
In terms of readily accessing scripts, unfortunately when I was studying, a lot of the scripts available for loan at the uni library were overall outdated. There must be better options online that provide access to a database of a sizeable range of newer scripts, although i haven't searched recently. (Note: any passing recommendations for decent databases of this kind are welcome!)
The more scripts you look at, the more you might notice - the style of a particular writer in conjunction with a particular director and whether they can use a sort of artistic shorthand is one example. The same screenwriter might write very differently when working with a different director. You can supplant this comparison with interview material, because processes on set can vary greatly.
For example, some films allow for and depend upon significant improvisation by an actor, eg in the role of protagonist, to arrive at final dialogue. This practice may not be obvious to the spectator, and is only revealed in interviews with cast and crew. In fact some directors prefer to work with improvisation. This process might not include the writer at all! :( Storyboarding and editing are other variable processes for consideration. If you are creatively interested in contemplating shooting details, it is practicable to learn and understand about relevant technical processes first- from acronyms for framing shots in screenplays, to mechanical and digital processes of cinematography and sound - than relying on writerly visual imagination alone.
An argument could be made against that, that it's better for a writer's imagination to be left unfettered by such technicalities. The script is the structure on which the film as a visual medium depends. Perhaps it's best if all available resources for the script focus on nailing that, rather than becoming diverted by visual and/or technical considerations, especially where these may be liable to change throughout the production.
Personally, due to the difference between the advice and some scripts, I reckon it likely depends on variables in the context, with less likelihood this is either a requirement or opportunity for an amateur, unless making one's own production and you have interests in visual elements of cinematography, or directing.
Another approach is to consider that a fair amount of film screenplays are based on adaptations of novels. These formats are so unalike because of convention, of which length is a significant factor, as well as the nature of exposition. There will almost certainly be far more visual descriptors in books than in screenplays, and a lot of that will be cut during adaptation, along with a majority of content. In the process, and this may have as much to do with screenwriting as any directorial decision, there might be artistic decisions to gather together, condense and amplify visual and atmospheric motifs originally repeated throughout a work. The duration of observation of such elements overall throughout a novel might be reduced by producing instead a single moment of sweeping cinematic effect that is a combination of a number of elements. The writer can't control certain aspects of this, including sound, performance, editing - even rewrites by third parties. But even if not dictating technical elements of shots, I think in adapted works we would most likely see visual motifs in a broader text boiled down to their quintessence, including a signature visual style of sorts to stand in for the detail that is cut. This can be included with or without directorial technicalities. Another potential variable is generic conventions, including whether any audience expectations for the genre will be subverted, and if so, what methods will achieve this, and whether this is essential to include in the script.
Also, it helps to be generally conscious of costs and to be prepared for the fact that especially when starting out, ambitious scenarios based on an interesting story may not fly since depending on opportunity, budget may trump originality. That was one of the main themes hammered home in this class. Certain sets, scenes, shooting requirements, props and cast, may simply cost too much to organise and shoot. Relatedly, certain scenes may prove too expensive to shoot as described during production. Meaning that if such content is included in a screenplay, even if picked up for production, these elements may not see it through to the screen. From all of this, you can hazard some rules of thumb.
For example, if you're an unpublished writer, it might be best to assume a style which is compatible with small low-budget productions. That includes consciousness of, and an aim to minimise, overall expenses involved in production. If you were hired on a project, you might find expectations could depend on to whom you would be pitching the work, and whether you had any existing working relationship, or existing work. The following element is not strictly on point but worth mentioning as it was hammered home in this class. If you have no budget to speak of, it might be wise not to, say, gravitate towards writing scripts that include scenes that would likely be expensive to produce. Might not be the best example, but say, where a car smashes into a crowded shopping centre and explodes. Even if an explosion is warranted in the story, as a writer. you might think less about the spectacular visual element of the crash and perhaps more about how to adapt it so the same impact can be experienced onscreen without the production necessarily having to spend a lot of money on expensive visual effects, especially if CGI is not desirable or not an option.
Generally, screenwriting advice can seem somewhat negative, in that it is full of "don'ts". It's worth noting that occasionally people get away with ignoring certain conventions and some are even hailed as brilliant because of just that. Arguably though, it's best to be conscious of departing from convention when doing so, and to have an idea why the conventions exist, as well as economics. So in this sense, it's worth finding out a lot more anecdotal information about how certain directors deal with scripts, as well as stumbling blocks in production, and what happens legally when you sell the rights to a script, and so on.
I reckon one reason the work of writer-directors is often relatively powerful is because in managing to wear both hats, the creator has more power to protect the integrity, intentions, visual world and atmosphere of their scripted story. (Editing on phone which lost content here, so trying to remember what disappeared.) This results in what seems to usually be unique low-budget independent films that are excellent, albeit unprofitable. Sometimes from there, the writer-director's talent and idiosyncratic vision itself gains a cult following that lands them opportunities on profitable Hollywood productions. Peter Jackson, Taika Waititi and Edgar Wright spring to mind as examples. Also, although i might be mistaken, my impression is that directors are given far more artistic control during production relative to writers. Indeed writers may have very little control (legally, contractually, artistically) after submitting work, as indicated here in this interview.
Finally, another random idea is to write two versions of your story. One includes all the evocative visual details you imagine, and the other is a quintessential script. Putting it another way, adapt your own story after writing it. In this way, you might find it easier to produce a script, through a process of surgical editing and other conversion and transformation. In that way, if content is excised, it may be felt to be not wholly lost, if that makes sense, as those parts will remain alive in a different form, some of which may come to life visually even if never entering the script itself.
tl;dr - this convention may depend on context, so the best advice I have personally is to:
a) read a wide range of screenplays, including up to date work, and compare these to the final cinematic productions to elucidate what was and wasn't included in the script; and
b) gain consciousness of a range of influencing variables that can help guide you in making such decisions, and how to best execute inclusion or exclusion to gain the best chances of your vision making production

Thanks for the tips.
I've been using a similar style or writing (using celtx) but my main difference is that I would put a character's name (in a character name section) for an action. For some reason it never occurred to me to just put the name of the person doing the action, in the action section... oh well, that's the entire reason to watch the video I guess. (learning)

Very informative for beginners. I myself didn't know whereven to start....but this gave me a starting line.
I have a question when penning a screenplay do you have to write down what kinda of camera shot are you going to use in your script?
thanks
+justisperez
I know it's been two months since you've asked this question but just in case you haven't looked into it. It's essential that you don't put Camera shots in the script. You are a screenplay writer not a director. There may be a certain time when it may be allowed but a good rule is to avoid them as much as possible.
justisperez I think that's for the director to decide, not the screenwriter.
as a expert writer you should write the shot description also,
we promote new script writer through our tv program, to join us please send your writing sample in the form of one liner or and scene or and screenplay to us. all the best
From what I know, only do that if you've been making screenplays for a long time and are the director, but still, I'm pretty sure it's advised to not do that. But, it's up to you
Then when you realize all your favorite writing staffs and writers, use their own hybrid formats.
I think script are same but style are different
Thank you for this, I did not know how format a script when ridden properly. I recently did a short film for school and we used a very rough script and I suggested we have a properly formatted script which I did not know how to do. I will still do it and submit it to my professor if I can, but we'll do this to practice anyways. Years later this video is still relevant!
This is very informative and detailed, great video!
So For the SLUG LINE. would I for example. write
Ext. suburbs - night
action stuff
dialog stuff.
INT. house - continuous
the keep writing continuous every time I need to indicate it's the same time as the first slug line?
Yes. You can also use the intercut method if the scenes keep bouncing back and forth.
J Mo wherever you wish to put intercut write the dilouge or action and write the inter cut at the point of transition

Wow this video covered up most of my questions thank you so much now my script for my short film is gonna look great i'm very excited for this project.
So, I have an Idea for a short film that has no dialogue, all emotion is pushed through the types of shots and what is seen on screen and I have no idea how to format that. any advice?
+Weezy_Corpse Write down what kind of expressions you want them to express or be present for the duration of filming and possibly show the actors how you want them to do it if what you written wasn't what you wanted? I'd do that.
Though a little late, I recommend using that keflux or something effect, in which it's the scene that talks when a important element (like when the characters have masks or in your case, no voices) is missing. Like, when a character is staring at a bowl of soup with a hand on his stomach, you'd assume he's hungry, or when a character is crying, (no voice though) and you see someone in a hospital bed, you'd assume he's dying/ in a fatal position and the person in the bed is close to the crying character. Hoped this help friend.

what is the difference between a screenplay and script?
arjay2002ph Pretty much the same thing, just different names.
arjay2002ph A spec screenplay you sell and the shooting screenplay you shoot it on your own.
arjay2002ph A screenplay is for film, a script for stage.
+arjay2002ph -- They are generally the same thing. To be more precise, the term "script" is a general one that covers all the written plays, such as, "screenplays" (written for motion pictures that you see at the movie theaters), "teleplays" (written for television shows, comedies, dramas, etc.), "radio plays" (written for radio shows, like the old-time radio dramas, or pod-cast dramas) and "stage plays" (written for the stage, like Broadway or even a local play venue and school plays). The basic formats for all of them are similar, but there are additional, sub formats that are indicative to each type. For instance, in a screenplay and teleplay there are numbered headings that will include direction for the camera, since these type of scripts are intended to recorded on film or video, where a stage play has no need for camera notations, since it will be acted out entirely on stage. Radio plays were only to be listened to, so they were written with headings and descriptions that stated sound effects. One more type of script is that written for comic books. Rather than headings for the camera, they state the words "Panel 1", "Panel 2" and so on for however many panels will be on each page that the artist must draw for. Some video show scripts have a two column format, one column for the video (camera direction and action description) and the other for the Audio (dialogue).
RAP is what you do. Hip Hop is what you live. Something like that .
Thank you so much! Im trying to write a script for a small movie im making and i thought i could just skip to recording but my thoughts are all over the place.

Do you like screenplays?
well recently I've been forced to write my own stuff. Im a aspiring director but I end up acting, writing and editing my own projects.
DeSean Atwood. Really? What forced you to do these things, being small time? Oh and I hope you achieve your dream of being a director.
UltimatexStealth Well, the more I realized what I can't do myself, the more I decided to learn. Lots of google research and minor experience and basic education is what I have so far. I have a Certificate in "Multimedia/Video Production" and a in home video production setup, and thank you!
DeSean Atwood. You're welcome; and I think you'll be going places. You certainly have the potential for success. Oh and do you enjoy reading screenplays?
You forgot to tell people that if you are a beginning screenwriter, you do a "spec script" - not a shooting script, so that means no camera angles, no excessively long dialogue, and no excessive use of adverbs, even in parenthenticals. Especially if you are submitting to a screenplay contest - any of these that appear in that script means disqualification and the screenplay will not be read, and will be screaming "unprofessional writer!". And you won't get very far!
Agreed. In my country we actually study two forms of script. The literal one which encapsulates the story, actions, dialogue in a simple and easy to read layout. After the script gets approved, you have to write the technical script; with all the camera angles and shots. You also have to make a storyboard afterwards, which can be a set of artistic drawings of every shot, or a technical drawing depicting everything from above...
Whaa? I'm worried now, like, if it's my first screenplay, how do I write it?
Very good presentation, lots of good, basic info.
Hopefully it'll be done sometime this summer! But I'll be showing behind the scenes stuff some weeks when we get to shooting.
Good info, but I am little annoyed by your narration because it feels like you are speaking without Period or commas. Your voice also feels like you have a cold and you are speaking from your nose. Slow down a little mate.
+Akash Colvin If the information is useful use it. WTF do You care about whether he sounds like he got cold or malaria? What a stupid cow!

Hey, at least the person who commented here told it nicely. Unlike you who showed no respect. At least he pointed out his own criticism in a respectful manner unlike you.
