How to write a script in screenwriting?

Writing a screenplay is supposed to be something that can be fun for those who like doing it.

These are the basic steps that you can follow to write a screenplay:

• Create a logline.

• Write the type of treatment needed.

• Now you need to create the characters. Make sure to develop them so that people will know whether to love them or hate them.

• Create an outline.

• Choose the plot that you want for the story that you have created.

• Take a break from writing so that you can refresh your mind.

• Double check all of the things that you have rewritten.

There will be moments that you may need to rewrite some of the things that you have done.

Writing a screenplay is both challenging and fun because you are creating something that will be seen and heard by everyone in the audience. Become familiar with the format of the screenplay.

A screenplay is only as good as it’s dialogue, so make sure you have presented the dialogue clearly and make sure it is compelling and interesting.

• The major rule in screenwriting is that you have to write visually.

• Give the character a solid backstory and show the audience what motivates the character.

• Become acquainted with the format of the screenplay.

• It is very specific and it requires the patience to do a plethora of tabbing and hitting enter.

• Keep transitions smooth.

• An example of a popular transition is FADE IN/FADE OUT.

• These represent the opening and closing scenes.

• Read examples of other screenplays.

• A good example of one that is almost flawless is Casablanca.
