Secrets of Screenplay Structure

Great properties are defined by, "Location, location, location." Great screenplays are defined by, "Structure, structure, structure." Linda Cowgill's new book, Secrets of Screenplay Structure, articulates the concepts of successful screenplay structure in a clear language, based on the study of great films from the 1930s to present day. Secrets of Screenplay Structure helps writers understand how and why great films work as well as how great form and function can combine to bring a story alive. Secrets of Screenplay Structure can be used in an interactive format if readers follow Cowgill's suggestions to view the recommended films on video before beginning each chapter. Ms. Cowgill includes many helpful anecdotes, insider strategies, as well as "dos" and "don'ts" which will help readers make their writing more professional and, therefore, more marketable.
