Do you love movies…the action... the drama... and amazing stories told on the silver screen?
Do you have a movie (or TV) idea... but don\'t know what to do with it? If so, then you\'ve found the right book!
There are so many people out there that have amazing movie ideas. Ordinary people just like you and me. Where do you think the great movies we love came from?
Not from Hollywood superwriters.
Well, some of them did, but not all.
Many of the great movie ideas you see on the silver screen originated in John Smith\'s mind or Jessica Normal\'s diary. It’s because people are creative; they can\'t help but create.
The world is full of artists that don\'t even realize it. The only difference between them and you is that they knew what to do with their ideas while many people do not.
Many of us have great movie ideas, but don\'t do anything with them because we don\'t know how to make a movie... But you don\'t have to know how to make a movie; you just have to know about screenwriting.
Screenwriting is the process of taking your movie (or TV) idea and turning it into something tangible. It’s the process of putting your idea down on paper.
All movies start as a screenplay. Writing a screenplay allows a director to look at your movie idea and picture it. It allows them to see what you\'ve already seen in your imagination.
Many people do screenwriting, but fail to get the attention of the most important people. And many people with good ideas never even write a screenplay. Only a select few of screenplays ever get rolling into a real movie.
Think about it, there are so many movies out there that have never been made because people didn\'t know how to write a screenplay.
If you don\'t know anything about screenwriting, you could be depriving the world of your genius idea. If you never take the chance, your idea will only stay in your head... But many people want to see their ideas come to life; they just don\'t know where to start.
It\'s not hard to write a good screenplay and catch the right eye; you just have to know what you\'re doing.
