Acacia (acaciaa) I couldn't explain it half as well as the people over at script frenzy do, so here are some links to general guides.

Screenplays (Movies)

Stage Play

TV Script

Comic Book

And you can find some examples of screenplay scripts here.

Any other specific questions? Just leave them in the comments.

Acacia (acaciaa) By the way, I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend Celtx. It's a program that you write in which helps format your script, and it makes it SO easy. It's also available for a bunch of different operating systems and languages. Oh, and did I mention it's free?

You can download it here.

Yes, amen to this. ^^
