520 _aIn 1998, Michael Wiese Productions published the second edition of Fade In. The book is used by several top film schools and has educated many aspiring writers. For most, success as a screenwriter does not come easily. It is not uncommon to take ten and more years just to break in. Over and above talent and perseverence, is having a good sense of humor to deflect harsh criticism which is often irrelevant and even malicious at times. Even the top screenwriters who earn millions every year suffer indignities. Do your best to ignore destructive criticism and focus all your energy on writing. That's what it's all about. In the end, you may have the satisfaction of providing millions of people with a memorable movie experience. Synopsis: "Fade In" is a concise, step-by-step method for developing a 'story concept' into a finished screenplay. This book provides aspiring screenwriters with an insight into the writing form and writing process. While it is intended as a solid foundation, it is to be used only as a guideline: a writer's main goal is to tell a story that will engage the reader. The first edition has been used by professionals and universities around the world. The second edition covers: the basics of dramatic writing; creating three-dimensional characters; screenplay structure, form techniques and terminology; the creative process; adaptations; and, collaboration. Also included is the author's original screenplay, "Dead Man's Dance", with agent's critique. This title provides a step-by-step guide to the technique of scriptwriting.
