Breaking Down Your Script

TST. WIF Second Tuesday is back with Breaking Down Your Script!

You’ve got your script, your cast, your crew. You’re ready to shoot!  Well, not exactly. 

You need to break down your script. You need to go through it painstakingly, piece by piece, combing through each page, identifying elements and applying that information in order to budget and schedule your production.

In this WIF Second Tuesday mini-workshop, you’ll learn how to break down a script by hand and using Studio Binder. You'll also acquire some advice and hear a few Dos and Don’ts for creating a realistic production schedule based on your script. So, bring your script, come with production questions and join us! Equipment: a laptop if desired.

A study guide will be available on Tuesday.

Here's the study guide for the class:
