A MULTITUDE OF SINS

If you're interested in screen-writing, you could do worse than look in the links section. Drew's Script-o-Rama has some very good offerings. Study, emulate and fame and fortune will be yours!

There are many kinds of script. From a scrawled bit of paper that contains three sentences; a rough translation of an interviewee tape to be voiced over in 'North Country English' to a two hundred page masterpiece that's now on its sixth revision (and third screenwriter).

This section is in four parts:

	Understanding a Script What do all those funny things like 'd/s' and 'exeunt omnes' mean? Two column and Hollywood layouts explained.
	Programme Shaping Not, strictly speaking, script-writing; but it's an important part of creating a programme.
	Script-writing 101 Mainly from the point of view of non-fiction programming, but some drama stuff too.
	Commentary Definitely non-fiction. How to write good narration for documentaries, current affairs, features, news, etc.
