Scriptwriting
Think of a script as your game plan for bringing an idea to fruition. A script saves time, creates a structured outline, and provides a concise medium for capturing your ideas. A script can be as simple as a shot list with notes, two-column or A/V style, or screenplay format. However, professional screenplays should be properly formatted. This shows that the writer is serious, organized, and has a roadmap to get to the finished product. Screenplay format (looks like a play) is the generally accepted format for screenplays or movies and television series. Two-column or A/V style (an audio column with narration or sound and a video column depicting what is being seen on screen) is mostly used in music videos, news shows, documentaries, and instructional videos.
