Gardner`s Guide to Feature Animation Writing: The Writer`s Road Map
teaches how to develop marketable animation stories and scripts.
Through a simple analogy, you will come to understand the basics of
writing for animated features while discovering the distinctions
between animation and live-action scripts and examining feature
animation genres. In addition, you will be given the tools to create
cohesive plot structures for the animated screenplay, fascinating
characters, original scenes, and dynamic dialogue. And if you are a bit
intimidated about integrating comedy into your animation screenplay,
never fear, for once you`ve mastered Chapter 14 on comedy cones, your
script will have the reader laughing out loud. Includes the "secret"
and scene-by-scene specific structure included in Gardner`s Guide to
Screenwriting, with some minor variations. By applying this structure
creatively and effectively, your feature animation script will stand
out among the thousands of scripts that circulate around studio lots.About the Author:Marilyn Webber has worked as a professional
