Description:
Learn to craft smart, original scripts and teleplays for a variety of television formats, including comedy, animation, drama, movies of the week, pilots, reality television, TV news magazine, and children's programming. Industry-veteran Martie Cook provides you with checklists, sample outlines and treatments for each format, sample script pages, war stories from writers and executives, a sample query letter to introduce finished script pages to agents, and countless other invaluable tools that will help you avoid common pitfalls. Jay Leno, Mike Walace, Norman Lear, Paul Haggis and dozens of other luminaries contribute their wisdom as well, lifting the veil on the realities of working in the… industry. Guiding you through the often confusing television hierarchy, Write to TV 2e offers practical advice on important issues such as how to get an agent, how to write a query letter, how to network, even how to "do lunch".
