Ellie Land, Northumbria University, UK

Charles daCosta, Savannah College of Art and Design, USA
«Well laid out. Thoughtful approach. Excellent sections on refining dialogue and mise-en-scène.»
Matthew Anderson, West Thames College, UK
«This well laid out book, full of pictures and sparsely laid out text was a breeze to complete. It shows examples of scripts from first to final draft and interviews and numerous quotes from film-makers, both new and old. It was simply laid out in a strikingly graphic manner that never daunts the reader; or deters them from completing both the book and the screenplay.»
Dan Duran, University of East London, UK
«'Absolutely relevant ... First-class. Dynamic, precise and extremely well-produced.'»
Ashley Gaskin, Institute of Technology Tralee, Ireland
«A very accessible book that gives students an insight into the processes and techniques of screenwriting. It cites many good examples of best practice and covers all aspects of the screenwriting processes ... The section on theories of storytelling is succinct and accessible and appropriate for level 4 film students. Good clear layout that is consistent with the range of Basics books.»
Michael Smith, Leeds College of Art, UK
«An excellent and beautifully illustrated book which has an extensive range of sources and examples and is very accessible. It also has really useful tips and advice for students and is easy to dip into and browse through. Highly recommended.»
