Description
As news of screenwriters getting seven-figure deals leaks to the masses, it's no wonder hundreds of aspiring screenwriters come to Hollywood each day for a chance at easy money and glory. However, the reality is that writing and selling a screenplay is far easier said than done and requires that the author not only write a cohesive and complete script (and not just have an idea for a movie), but that he also have the knowledge of the filmmaking process and industry necessary to market and sell the screenplay.
Real Screenwriting: Strategies and Stories from the Trenches provides the real deal on the art, craft, business and everyday life of a screenwriter. Written by a former entertainment lawyer turned successful Hollywood film producer and produced screenwriter, and gleaned from the author's popular screenwriting seminars at UCLA Extension school, this book provides aspiring writers with the inspiration and tools they need to get their stories on the page, and eventually onto the screen. Real Screenwriting also presents personal "in the trenches" anecdotes, invaluable insider tips and strategies, plus the helpful Hollywood survival skills every screenwriter needs to write a marketable screenplay, network himself, get an agent, protect his work, and develop a writing career.
Ron Suppa is a member of the Writers Guild of America, West, Inc. and former entertainment lawyer. He is also a published author, a produced screenwriter, an international script consultant, and the producer of ten feature motion pictures. Mr. Suppa is a regular contributor to Creative Screenwriting magazine and is also a Senior Instructor in the UCLA Extension Writers Program, where he received the Outstanding Teacher Award for his seminars in screenwriting. He lives in Westlake Village, California.
