Teach Yourself Screenwriting is the ideal introduction for someone who wants to break into the field, but is unsure of how it all works.

This book explains the processes involved in transforming your creative ideas into a format that will really work on screen, and offers specialist advice on various issues, such as characterisation and the use of visual language. It is an essential read for the budding screenwriter and does not only guide the reader through the intricacies and craft of writing for the screen, but also advises on how to approach the industry.
