[stylist] screen play venues

[Bridgit Kuenning-Pollpeter]

Vejas,

No, a screenplay is specific to the screen, film or television. A play in
book form is generally a stage-play published in novel form so it can be
read by the general public. Although, I suppose a theatre school or class
specific to film and TV making may have a screenplay in book form. But as a
rule, screenplay refers to scripts written for film/TV.

Hi Sem,
This is cool.
Is the term "screen-play" used specifically for plays that are shown live?
Some books are in play form, so would they be considered screen-plays also?

Hi everyone.  Fore any interested in exploring the possibility of taking
your  writing to movies or T.V, here are some interesting links.  I got
these from another writer friend who does far more networking than I do when
I asked her a question so thought to pass on the resource.  Sem My friend
says Stage 32 ( https://www.stage32.com/welcome/13/ ) is a great place for
making connections because you can't do that many places.  There is also the
International Screenwriters Association ( http://www.networkisa.org/ ).  But
really, unless you're ready to pay to pitch ideas to places or you have an
agent to sell your scripts for you, you have to submit and query the old
fashioned way.  Contests can get your foot in the door but only the right
contests: AFF, Fresh Voices, Final Draft Big Break.  She's had luck with
contests.


I hope that helps!
