Description
"Syd Field is the preeminent analyzer in the study of American screenplays." -- James L. Brooks, Academy Award-winning writer, director, producer.

Syd Field’s classic books on the craft of screenwriting have been fully revised and updated. Featuring new chapters and film references, these classic foundations of screenwriting earned Syd Field guru-status. Even if you’ve owned these books for years, you’ll want to revisit them with their new up-to-date information at a special bundled price.

About Screenplay: The Foundations of Screenwriting:

A real gem on the craft of screenwriting, this third edition of Syd Field's preeminent book on screenwriting provides easily understood guidelines for writing a screenplay, from concept to finished product. Field makes the art of film writing accessible to novices and helps practiced writers improve their scripts, as he pinpoints stylistic and structural elements such as characterization and plot (and why the first ten pages are crucial).

This masterful book provides tips and techniques on screenplay format; collaborations; adaptations; what to do after your screenplay is written and more. The highly-regarded scripts of Chinatown and Silver Streak are used to illustrate concepts.


About The Screenwriter's Problem Solver:

All writing is rewriting. But what do you change, and how do you change it? All screenplays have problems. They happened to Die Hard: With a Vengeance and Broken Arrow-and didn't get fixed, leaving the films flawed. They nearly shelved Platoon-until Oliver Stone rewrote the first ten pages and created a classic. They happen to every screenwriter. But good writers see their problems as a springboard to creativity. Now bestselling author Syd Field, who works on over 1,000 screenplays a year, tells you step-by-step how to identify and fix common screenwriting problems, providing the professional secrets that make movies brilliant-secrets that can make your screenplay one headed for success...or even Cannes. Learn how to: · Understand what makes great stories work · Make your screenplay work in the first ten pages, using Thelma & Louise and Dances With Wolves as models · Use a "dream assignment" to let your creative self break free overnight · Make action build character, the way Quentin Tarantino does · Recover when you hit the "wall"-and overcome writer's block forever.

About The Screenwriter's Workbook:
