I’ve written about 6 short films and I wasn’t really worried about how technically sound the scripts were because it was just me and my friend shooting them. Now I want to give it a good 100-120 page effort and I have a few questions:
1. I have Final Draft version 6. Is there a major difference in 6 and 7? If the industry standard is the same what have they changed? I hope I can get away with keeping my 6?
2. I’m trying to learn as much as I can and I’m starting to read some produced scripts. Are most of the scripts that you find at book stores and places like that spec or shooting scripts? Would it be bad to read and learn from shooting scripts if I’m writing a spec script?
Where is a good place to read some good spec scripts that I know are fundamentally sound? Free if possible.
Thanks for your help
