First, use a software to write a screenplay, in here i use Celtx.
Second, write the title and who's write the screenplay. Also write the contact and the copyright.
And than, we start to write the screenplay. There's some element in screenplay:
1. Scene Heading
It explain the place, and time where the story begin.
Ex:
INT. CLASSROOM - MORNING
EXT. PARK - AFTERNOON
INT is for interior, which means the place where the story begin is in a room.
EXT is for exterior, which means the place where the story begin is in a open place such a park, a lake, etc.
2. Subheader
When a new scene heading is not necessary, but some distinction needs to be made in the action, you can use a subheader. But be sure to use these sparingly, as a script full of subheaders is generally frowned upon. A good example is when there are a series of quick cuts between two locations, you would use the term INTERCUT and the scene locations.
3. Action
It explain what, where the caracter is doing.
Ex:
This morning Frey get a headhace, he keep shaking his head, hopes that it will help.
4. Character
It explain the actor in the screenplay.
Ex:
BUDI
OLD MAN
5. Parenthetical
It explain what the actor doing, while he/she do the dialogue.
Ex:
(laughing out loud)
(standing in the middle of the room)
6. Dialogue
It's anything that the actor said in the screenplay.
Ex:
Maybe you're right. We should move from this city as soon as possible. Before the police can get us.
7. Transitions
Are film editing instructions, and generally only appear in a shooting script. Transition verbiage includes:
- CUT TO
- DISSOLVE TO
- SMASH CUT
- QUICK CUT
- FADE TO
A shot tells the reader the focal point within a scene has changed. Like a transition, there's rarely a time when a spec screenwriter should insert shot directions. Once again, that's the director's job.
Ex:
- ANGLE ON --
- EXTREME CLOSE UP --
- PAN TO --
- LIAM'S POV --
