Screenwriting 101 (e-book)
What a fun opportunity for students to learn how to turn a story into a screenplay. Screenplay is the written work for a film, television show, or other moving media, that expresses the movement, actions, and dialogue of a character. Screenplay, or scripts, are the blueprint for the movie. A screenplay is written in a specific format to distinguish between characters, action lines, and dialogue.
A ten-week course where the student will learn how to storyboard, format a screenplay, and think like a director. They will use reading sections of books and follow links to watch how it was made into video. This is a pdf download. There are activities to do but no assessments. ~Amber
