What is a script? A script is a story written in dialogue form in which the story is related to the audience by what the characters say. There is less reliance on a narrator to communicate the event of the story.

What makes a entertaining script? It is engaging It is understandable It is entertaining It relates a story

What are stage directions Stage directions are those parts of the script that relate specific directions for performers, directors, or tech. workers that relate what something looks like or how something should happen in a play. These directions are not part of the spoken dialogue.

Format for typing a script Mutually Assured Destruction (Title) (The living room. JULIAN is playing a video game. He has a headset on and is talking into it.) (Stage Directions: This direction is establishing the location.) JULIAN, 15 (CAST) TARA, 17 (Character’s name listed each time they speak; name is centered) JULIAN Oh I’m coming for you, Ann. You and all your little friends. I speak with the voice of the great warrior kings of – oh come on! Oh come on not fair! Whoah. Whoah. Time out. I thought we agreed there were no snipers! Well we said it! I said it! (TARA enters, enraged.) TARA Hey. (JULIAN holds up his hand to tell her to wait a second.) Hey. HEY AGAIN.
