Description
A guide to screenwriting by two authors who have actually done it, full of secret insider information about how to conquer the Hollywood studio system: how to write, pitch, structure, and get drunk with the best and most successful of them. If you are aiming to win an Oscar, this is not the book for you! But if you can type a little, and can read and speak English, then you too can start turning your words into money. The authors provide the kind of tips you won't find anywhere else, including: the art of pitching; getting your foot in the door; taking notes from movie stars; how to get fired and rehired ; how to get credit and royalties.--From ppublisher description.
