@@DAMON409 yes, and I’ve written software for scriptwriting which is why I was interested in the specifics. Thanks for pointing this out though, I would have never known.
When I was young I was overwhelmed by the enormity of two things: (A) learning to write in the framework of a screenplay and (B) thinking of anything to write about in the first place. So, I tackled the first problem first. I cracked open an old short novel I liked and typed it up in screenplay format. It gave me that "Hell, I can do this!" feeling. (Events took me elsewhere and I'm just now getting back to this rather late in life, so I love StudioBinder.)
Hey, just wanted to say thanks for that idea. I've been getting into screenwriting recently and I think rewriting one of my favorite novels in screenplay format may help me learn. Thanks!!
That is such a cool idea! I am in the process of looking for creative activities to give teens during a screen writing workshop and think this would be great. Thanks!
This is (of course) one of the better explanations of screenplay formatting. Which, I’d expect nothing less from studiobinder. This channel never ceases to amaze me

Cut to Naweed in a bus seat with earbuds in his ears and again watching studiobinder video in smartphone, all the time the camera remains static and covering naweed only, we get an idea that he's watching studiobinder's video because the audio of video is heard. Camera slowly moves to horizontally right where we see Tarantino reading a novel and as he sees the YT video is using his movie as an example and reads the title, tarantino asks naweed if he wants to work with him, naweed agrees, tarantino smiles, cut to naweed and tarantino sitting in a house discussing, naweed proposes an excellent written opening scene for Inglorious bstrds, tarantino is impressed, rest is history.

Is it legal to make videos like this for free? I mean Studiobinder, you are amazing. May happiness be with you and the entire Studiobinder crew. Love from the heart
I don't see how this would be illegal. They are paying for the rights to share the content from the videos they are referencing and they are showing industry standard practices not proprietary practices. The only things that they are using in this video that is proprietary is their own SaaS. In all honesty, Studiobinder is the best TH-cam channel at advertising their own product. It's entertaining and educational.
I must say just wow again. I had no idea about the strict rules referring to movie script writing. I have to admit, I do now respect these professionals in the business a lot more than I did before. Understanding there’s way more to it than (most important, of course) creativity. So kudos to all writers in the field and thank you once more for an eye and mind opening video. Being the capital COURIER of filming insights, I’ll stay FONT of you.
Top notch. I've been watching video after video of how to write a movie script-Pretenders!-but this video outshines them like they were in the shadows and this is the bright sunlight. It's three times as much info as all of them put together. THIS is how the pros do it. Having watched this video, you now have all you need to write a script. Stop watching any more videos on scriptwriting and WRITE!
Quite literally such a perfect concise video. The way this channel has helped me over the last few months is insurmountable. Thank you StudioBinder!!! Growing to be a better writer everyday.
I've seen several videos explaining the screenplay and none of the others are as clear as this one. It gives you background history about the format, what are the elements of the screenplay format, how to use them in different ways, advice on what to do and what not to do, and examples of how some writers break the rules to show what they want us to see. Brilliant!
When this channel blows up, it will blow up big. I dont even watch movies or tv or much streaming, just youtube and i find every one of your videos so interesting.
With this channel you have a possibility to learn everything about filmmaking and cinematography without losing 200-300k on SAE or PFI. Absolutely wonderful channel and thanks everyone that are creators of content like this!
I love Filmmaking and Screenwriting one of my favorite Freelancing Careers I was just writing a Horror Film Script on Google Docs while watching *Halloween* I love watching this channel cause it helps the Improvement of my writing skills thank you StudioBinder
Halfway through this and I can personally confirm I needed this! (Been very busy and only recently just got some time to breathe, and I decided to finally get started on the first draft of the script for my short film!) This comprehensive break down of a traditional script structure is just what I needed to help me get a starting idea on how to print my concept in a way that is professional, or at least understandable to others!
Good job! I'm really proud of you for getting your script done, really. Making a script is difficult but so captivating on how you draft it into your film.
I love love loved this video! Such useful information for anyone who interacts with screenplays, and executed in such an engaging way! Every time I watch a studiobinder video, I'm exposed to movie scenes I wouldn't have seen otherwise, which makes me want to watch them. Wonderful work!
The only thing I’d ever want artificial intelligence to do for me in writing, is format my screenplay for me. It is rarely conducive to the flow of my thoughts. This video is an exceptionally helpful reference as is all you material. Thanks, guys.
This is truly a gold mine of knowledge. I think most of us understand a screenplay. I know how to write it and yet i found many details tht explain the why of things instead of just the use. Love the historical facts and the color pages are something i heard but never understood. Really a great lesson because at the end shows how every writer, writes. Like a unique voice in books, specially kaufman who is the most unique writer i know. I was hoping to see pedro almodovar because his scripts are like novels, hope you do almodovar videos.
Somebody give the editor of this video, a raise for going hand to hand with the narrator and keeping up with him which adds a bit of comedy to it!😂😂😂 Brilliant!
*_StudioBinder would you please make a series or a seperate video on "Film Grammer" or "Film Glossary" that every filmmaker and cinematographer should know🙏😇*
Now I can format my margins and tab spaces like a real professional writer! If only I could think of something to write about... Seriously though, thank you so much for this video, @StudioBinder! I love technical details like this.
As a beginning screenwriter and a long time creative writer I have been feeling unsure as to where I can put my own personality, vision, and humor into a script while not upsetting readers with "fluff" or being controlling of how other parts of the cast and crew adapt the script. I really appreciate the Creative Applications section of this video, though is there somewhere I can go for additional tips or a more in depth look into it? This is such an excellent video, thank you!
Thank you for producing this informative piece for screenwriters...It's been a while since my last screenplay and can see I need to update and relearn formatting.
Very insightful and especially interesting since you covered some of the roles other filmmakers have in reviewing a screenplay. Thank you kindly for this.
It’s interesting how much inspiration game design based scripts follow a similar format to TV scripts in my experience. Not everything is carried over, and some new things are added in relationship to game design, but interesting to see non the less.
I really wish that this video had been published before I wrote (and subsequently directed) my first film. This is a brilliant video and really helps. Thankfully the software I use now automatically formats the script for the writer, but this would have been a godsend. You're helping many new writer, this is god's work you're doing here! Loved this video.
@Chxrgerifle Trelby. It's free and it works great. Just finished my sequel script in it last night. It give you character reports which are really helpful, and I can check who has the most line, what percentage of the script etc etc. Would recommend it!
Missed opportunity: when talking about the different script colours, you should have used from The Making of The Shining, Jack Nicholson (along with Stanley Kubrick) “Of course, we never have the latest version” 😁
I am also a screenplay writer. I have written 2 screenplays for movies. The latest movie released on last December 15th. Now I am going to direct a movie, written by me
Interesting video, like so many other in your series. A few questions: Is it the same standards for TV as for Movies, and are they the same internationally as well, or is it just Hollywood?
- [00:04] 🎬 The screenplay is crucial as the backbone of narrative filmmaking. - [03:34] 📝 Screenplays follow a specific format with elements like scene headings, action, characters, dialogue, and transitions. - [11:33] 📜 Correct formatting in a screenplay signals professionalism and enhances its sellability. - [12:25] ⏱ Screenplay format aims for one page per minute, aiding filmmakers in estimating film length. - [13:11] 🎬 A shooting script, derived from the master scene script, becomes the definitive version for the film crew. - [16:49] 🔄 Screenplay rules can be creatively bent or adapted by skilled writers like Charlie Kaufman, Aaron Sorkin, Spike Lee, and others. - [21:26] 📝 Following screenplay conventions, while allowing for experimentation, results in original and effective storytelling.
Thank you so much for making the video. I guess, for a lot of ppl it is now hard to study screenwriting and all, cuz of the situation in Hollywood. Personally, my confidence in the future (of art) is kinda broken after recent events, but I wanna keep going anyway. They are not gonna take away our minds and satisfaction in writing💥
Great video on screenplays/scripts. The more I practice script writing, the more I learn. StudioBinder has been invaluable in my education and execution of bringing my ideas to film. One thing I want to point out and I heard this mentioned by another noted scriptwriter, when you write a script, it is different from writing a novel. Aside from writing your scenes in the present tense, the descriptions of the scene have to be short, but descriptive enough for production to assemble the scene. Additionally, turning a book or comic book into a script is a daunting task. How to include enough dialogue, scenes and plots to make an effect adaptation without loosing the core fan-base and still preserving the essence of the story? I think that would be a good follow up to this video, having a samples of movies adapted from novels and seeing how they match up. Do they stay true to the content or do they miss the mark. I know personally as novel writer, I sometimes can over-describe a scene in my writing. But when it comes to translating it to filming script, I realize I need to take 3 pages and condense it to 3 sentences. But it is a learning curve I will master with unrelenting effort. Again, thanks for this informative video.
