Grabbing the Reader in the
First 10 Pages
"The most
comprehensive and thoughtful analysis yet for professional
screenwriting.”
—Diane Cairns, VP
Production: Universal Pictures; Senior VP, ICM
The opening
of your screenplay is your most powerful weapon for acquiring an agent
or securing a deal. Hollywood executives seldom read past page 10 if
they’re not immediately involved in your story. Using
examples from award winning, blockbuster screenplays, as well as from
writers wanting to launch their careers, this DVD shows you how to
create opening scenes that:
- Draw
readers into the world you’ve created.
- Set the
tone of your screenplay.
- Establish
empathy with your hero.
- Lay the
groundwork for character growth and theme.
- Compel
readers to turn the page.
Part of the
