Screenplays 101 is divided into two separate units: Basic Structure and Basic Formatting.
**It is highly recommended that you complete the Basic Structure unit before moving on to the Basic Formatting unit.**
Screenplays are used in every aspect of a film’s production. Depending on the size of the film, anywhere from a few dozen to a few thousand people use the screenplay to do their jobs. Because so many people need the screenplay to perform a job to the best of their abilities, a screenplay must be formatted immaculately.
Once completing this unit, students will have a basic understanding of how a screenplay is formatted and why it is formatted that way, all with an eye toward students developing their own screenplay.
This course is a Part 2. In a Screenplays 101 course, screenwriter Nick Pappas covers both Structure and Formatting. Here in Part 2 we'll cover Basic Formatting. If you have not already watched Screenplays 101 – Part 1: Basic Structure, I highly recommend you go back and do so now. Having that knowledge under your belt will help you navigate Part 2 of this course.
The goal is that, by the end of this course, your students have a basic understanding of how a screenplay is formatted and why it is formatted that way, all with an eye toward developing their own screenplay.
