A screenplay writer is the first man who gives life to a character/s and creates interesting situations with his sheer imagination and grit. He feels the emotions and sentiments of the characters he creates, he sees the action and the events taking place in different situations he visualizes, he creates twists and turns, struggle and turmoil during the span of the story holding the hands of the audience participating and identifying them with their characters. It is the screenplay writer who makes his audience cry and laugh in the scenes he conceives. The book 'Art of Screen play writing' is designed to benefit those who have long nurtured a dream to be a writer in cinema. They neither have dearth of imagination nor lack of merit; what they lack is proper guidance to hone their skill and technical knowledge to step out on the path of writing for screen. The book attempts to enlighten budding writers about the genesis, methodology and chronology of screenplay writing from an Idea to complete screen play. A peep in to film techniques in the chapter 'Behind the camera' helps remove technical glitches of a writer who sometime encounters few dark patches while writing script. Similarly, understanding of different 'Sound' and 'Image' symbols arms a writer to properly interpret different emotions and expressions. 'Art of Screen play writing' is a complete learning experience for passionate writers.
