Screenwriter

As a screenwriter, you are responsible for writing the script or screenplay that serves as the blueprint for a production. Your role is pivotal in bringing stories to life on the screen as you’ll generate original ideas (your own or from someone else) or adapt existing material into a screenplay.Following a very strict template, you’ll write everything that will happen in the film, including scene descriptions, character actions, and dialogue. A screenwriter will create and shape the characters in the story, build the world around them, and give them authentic and engaging dialogue. Each character must have a unique voice, emotions, and idiosyncrasies, all while advancing the plot in the classic three-act structure.You’ll build the film’s narrative, creating conflict, and resolution, and maintaining audience engagement over those three acts. There’s no one way of getting there (see Pulp Fiction and Memento), and you’ll collaborate closely with the production team to refine the script and make necessary adjustments throughout the process.You are the architect of a film or TV show’s narrative, the storyteller who shapes the characters, plot, and dialogue–bringing captivating stories to the screen for audiences to enjoy. A screenwriter’s work is essential to the filmmaking process–without you, there is no movie, film, TV episode, or video.
