Book ID/图书代码： 09230713B61254

English Summary/英文概要： Targeted to the interests and vocabularies of junior high and high school students, each chapter of Screenwriting for Teens defines a concept, illustrates it with examples of current and/or classic films, and challenges its readers with creative writing, analytical, and discussion exercises. In addition to its value in a film-oriented curriculum, the material has application to coursework in English, Media, Theater, Journalism, and Psychology. This book gives teens — who go to movies more than any age group in the world — the tools to do more than just watch those movies: It gives them the tools to write their films themselves

Grade 8 Up—This workshop-in-a-book aims to prepare teens to complete a first short film. Each "concept" includes plot, pacing, character development, introductions to various genres, and more, and is presented in a few paragraphs followed by suggested examples in existing films and three writing exercises. The tone is chatty, avoiding formality and condescension in favor of encouragement to keep trying despite the rejection often found in the entertainment industry (Concept 100 is "You Hate Me, You Really Hate Me"). Aspiring writers hungry for more information will appreciate the recommended reading list.—Beth Gallego, Los Angeles Public Library, North Hollywood

This is exactly the kind of book my fictional characters in Movie Girl (Outskirts Press, 2008) should have had before they started writing their movie!
