Everything but the Script: Professional Writing in the
Entertainment Industry introduces readers to the lesser known yet
critically important forms of writing within the industry. The book
offers insight into how these "hidden" but potentially lucrative
writing practices determine the way in which creative work is
understood, discussed, and "processed" as a potential sale or green
light, as well as the role it plays in the development and
marketing of a project. The book is divided into two main sections
that mirror the filmmaking process. The first section covers
acquisition, development, and preproduction; the second is devoted
to production, distribution, and exhibition. Readers learn how to
create an effective synopses, draft productive critical comments
for script coverage, develop and refine story notes to help writers
progress from draft to draft, write effective pitch letters to
potential collaborators, and generate dynamic written materials to
support a successful publicity campaign. Drawing from the author's
extensive experience within the entertainment industry, Everything
but the Script is an excellent resource for courses and programs in
film and media studies.
