Practical guide to writing screenplays: it starts by defining the idea, shows the structural paradigm used by professionals, develops characters and dialogue, and teaches narrative devices such as flashback, voice-over or flashforward, with step-by-step exercises until completing a script.
It belongs to the Screenwriting Manuals collection and is the sixth edition. The original work, The Screenwriter's Workbook, was published in 1984; the Spanish translation is by Marta Heras.
Aimed at aspiring screenwriters and film students, and also useful as a refresher for professionals who want to consolidate the basic principles.
Sydney Alvin Field was an American author who wrote several books on screenwriting, the first being Screenplay: The Foundations of Screenwriting. He led workshops and seminars about producing salable screenplays. Hollywood film producers use Field's ideas on structure to measure the potential of screenplays.
