Description
"Writing for animation is both an art and a discipline, and Jeffrey Scott is terrific at teaching others what he's mastered himself."
–Jeffrey Katzenberg, DreamWorks SKG
Foreword by Hanna-Barbera Co-Founder Joe Barbera
In recent years, the reach of animation has extended far beyond the Saturday morning cartoons that generations of Americans grew up watching, with hit prime-time television series, cutting-edge digitally animated features, and blockbuster conventionally animated films drawing huge mainstream audiences, both young and old. The expanding market is luring writers who have an eye toward the future and an eagerness to work in a medium where the only limit is the depth of one's imagination.
With step-by-step instructions and the insights of a seasoned veteran, award-winning animation writer Jeffrey Scott explains the process of developing even the vaguest of ideas into a fully realized animation script. He details every stop on the road from inspiration to presentation, with sections on premises, outlines, description, dialogue, and much more:
- The job market and salaries for animation writing
- How to write funny material
- Writing animation for the Internet
- Creating an animated TV series
- Maximizing creative potential
- Selling the finished script
How to Write for Animation is the ultimate guide for anyone with ambitions of writing for the most rapidly developing medium in all of entertainment.
Jeffrey Scott. Three-time Emmy Award-winning writer for dozens of hit animated series, including Superfriends, Spider-Man, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Jim Henson's Muppet Babies, and the PBS smash hit, Dragon Tales.
