Sinopsis

Screenwriting Poetics and the Screen Idea is a new and original investigation into how screenwriting works, showing how to understand, study and research screenwriting and screen narrative production. It explores three facets - the practices, the creative ?poetics? and the texts - to re-conceptualise and join together our understanding of screenwriting and development. These facets serve the ?screen idea?, that sense of something that might become a film or television show, and the focus for the beliefs and received wisdom behind the poetics. Macdonald applies a range of film, media and creative theories to the study and research of screenwriting, and includes three new, original case studies: story development in the successful ITV soap Emmerdale, the silent film work of Hitchcock?s first major screenwriter Eliot Stannard, and David Lean?s last, unfinished ?magnum opus?, Nostromo.
