This book was written to fill a need, when I started teaching script writing at Santa Monica College and my students asked me to name a book on the subject I could recommend. After voluminous reading,... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Mr.Elman has hit the nail right on the head with this book. I am a part time writer with lots of ideas and up untill now I had many,many questions about each and every aspect of writing screenplays/teleplays. Mr.Elman has successfully answered all of my questions and more besides. He has also managed to inspire me at the same time. His book deals with many topics, including the following; The Outline, The Script, Character, Openings, Endings, Conflict, Suspense, Climax, Resolution,Dialogue, Plots, Writers Block, This book is crammed with information and it is written by a man who knows what he is talking about. It is written in such a fashion that is it very easy to read and understand. Thanks to Mr.Elman's humorous style of imparting information he make reading his book fun and interesting. If you are an up and comming writer or someone who would like to understand more about how the "nuts and bolts" of screenpays and teleplays are constructed, this is the book for you. In my book, Mr.Elman is "some man for one man". Nollaig Fahy
