Does anyone know where, if possible online, I can look at a script to see how it's formatted, how stage directions appear, etc. Or is it easier to buy a script to look at it? And re: timing in a script, I once heard somewhere that one page of a script is equal to one minute of time for the movie. Is that accurate? Thanks!
You can actually search and find free downloads of Oscar nominated/winning screenplays. Google : (sample OSCAR screenplays) and you will get tons of resources and free pdf downloads.
Thanks Gene and Matt!
Hi, Lyle. In my two micro-budget features, a page of script generally worked out to a minute of screen time - but not always.
Ok Eric, thanks!
Nikolas, with Highland, have you gotten good support with it? I've emailed Highland twice over the past 2-3 days with some questions about their software and they haven't gotten back to me yet. Thanks.
