About this title

Synopsis:

A third edition of the text which explores how scripts are transformed into motion pictures or television programmes. This updated version considers changes in the film industry such as electronic media, and is basically written for the novice scriptwriter.

From the Publisher:

The book teaches all vital script supervising functions, including: how to prepare, or "break down" a script for shooting; maintaining screen direction and progression; matching scenes and shots for editing; cueing actors; recording good takes and prints; preparing time and log sheets for editing. This revision of an industry classic has been updated to reflect changes in the film industry in recent years, including the use of electronic media in the script supervisor's tasks. While it is written for the novice script writer, it can serve as a valuable resource for directors, film editors, scriptwriters and cinematographers.
