Outlines and Treatments
from Scriptnotes Podcast (.mp3)
John and Craig look at the non-screenplay things screenwriters end up writing, most notably outlines and treatments. We discuss some of the ones we’ve written (with examples), and offer advice on writing your own. Also, how do you deal with sudden success? And what should a writer-director say when talking to a Very Famous Actress about starring in his movie? Our live conversation with Lawrence Kasdan is this Saturday!
