"Hollywood Formula" Worksheet
I have went to some script writing workshops and the speaker handed out this worksheet as a reference for writing Hollywood styled scripts. Figured I would share that with you. Here is the location for the worksheet.

Really cool. It was like a complete breakdown of the three acts. Very useful!

It is actually a link from scriptfrenzy.org that was a public posted link. Just figured I would share it here. They have some more writing resources here http://www.scriptfrenzy.org/eng/overview

cool, just making sure - legalities and all that (darn us mods and our stiff collared attitudes and rule following nature).

I don't know if this is borderline plagerism, or just a really big coincidence, but this is basically a less-detailed version of Jake Snyder's "Save the Cat" beat sheet.
This is pretty cool, but if you want the real deal, read "Save the Cat".

I have no idea what saving the cat is but this is just a worksheet I was handed out at a writting workshop. I saw the web address on the paper and decided to share it with you guys. I will look in to finding the save the cat one and check it out. Thanks C.F.

It's pretty sweet. Not just for the very effective "formula" laid out, but for a number of random and useful screenwriting "tricks", and some very good organizational tools.

Did you see the other stuff on here for tips on screen writting. Looks like it could be a good resource too.

I link their formatting page here now and then too.
Makes it way easier for someone to see examples of format.
Check out Filmy's 4 act structure and various info in the other screen writing section here
on Indietalk as well.
-Thanks-

I don't know if this happened to anyone else, but I tried to go to this website and it took 10 MINUTES to stop it from opening tabs on my PC. I don't have the slightest idea what just got downloaded, but I'm not going back to find out what this is.
