Description:

In the grand tradition of Strunk and White's Elements of Style, Paul Argentini presents an essential reference master-piece in the art of clear and concise principles of screenplay formatting, structure and style for screen-writers. Argentini explains how to design and format manuscripts to impress any film school professor, story editor, agent, producer or studio executive. The ultimate quick reference guide to formatting a screenplay-no book in shorter space, with fewer words, will help screenwriters more than this persistent volume. Includes a playwrite chapter for structure and format and an updated list of literary agent contacts.
