The two crucial ingredients for an exceptional screenplay are a great idea and Christopher Rileys The Hollywood Standard . Rileys guidance will ensure that your vision is communicated clearly and professionally to the people who will buy and make your film.
Sheryl Anderson, creator and executive producer ( Sweet Magnolias, writer-producer, Ties That Bind,
Parker Lewis Cant Lose, Daves World, Charmed, Flash Gordon )
One of the first books I tell new writers to buy. It is indispensable, practical, readable, and fun to use. Buy this book before you write another word!
Dean Batali, TV Writer/Producer ( That 70s Show, Buffy the Vampire Slayer )
Required reading for any screenwriter who wants to be taken seriously by Hollywood. Cant imagine how there never has been a book like this before!
Elizabeth Stephen, President, Mandalay Television Pictures; principal, Gables Media, Inc.
Christopher Riley just made my job tougher! Each year experienced producers screen out hundreds of scripts because the mistakes in form and organization reveal them to be the work of amateurs. But if those hopeful writers follow Rileys concise and knowledgeable advice, theyre going to look like the best professionals in Hollywood.
Robert W. Cort, Producer ( Save the Last Dance, Runaway Bride, Mr. Hollands Opus, The Hand
That Rocks the Cradle, Three Men and a Baby, Outrageous Fortune )
Chris Riley has been a teacher, a mentor, and a friend to me since we met nearly twenty years ago. His command of the screenwriting craft has been a constant source of guidance and inspiration throughout my career. Simply put: He knows how to write. And hes willing to share what he knows. Consider it a gift.
Scott Teems, writer-director ( Rectify, That Evening Sun, The Quarry ), writer ( Halloween Kills )
As storyboard artists, we didn't get better at our craft until we learned how to write. And we could not get better at writing without knowing what we were doing. Christopher Riley's The Hollywood Standard is an absolute must-have tool in the pursuit of becoming better writers and artists!
Justin Copeland, director ( Invincible, Wonder Woman: Bloodlines, Batman: Hush ), storyboard
supervisor ( Justice League vs The Fatal Five ); Chris Copeland, director (Invincible ), storyboard
artist ( Guardians of the Galaxy, The Death and Return of Superman )
If screenwriting is your religion, The Hollywood Standard is your Bible. It teaches you the shorthand language for expressing your ideas on the page in a way that buyers, filmmakers and collaborators can instantly and easily digest.
Stuart Hazeldine, director ( The Shack ), writer-director ( Exam)
A craftsman often bends the rules, an artist often breaks them. But to do it well, one must first know what those rules are, and I can think of no better way to learn them than Christopher Rileys The Hollywood Standard .
Bill Marsilii, screenwriter ( Dj vu )
Designed as a manual for every screenwriter neophyte or old pro it presents a format for writing scripts for theatrical feature films, hour-long television drama and long-form television, including made-for-TV movies and series. Riley's presentation will enable screenwriters to absorb material about, say, the necessity for page breaks, paragraphing and capitalization, without feeling intimidated. The book's strength lies in its ability to combine important specifics (e.g., the proper use of punctuation) with broader aspects of scriptwriting (e.g., how to describe what's being seen and heard within a shot or sequence).
Riley, who's also written screenplays for Touchstone Pictures, Paramount and Mandalay, supplies what may be the first accurate, complete and practical guide to standard script formats, a reference that writers of film would do well to keep handy as they work.
Publishers Weekly
Riley has made my life as a professor of screenwriting so much easier . Whenever a student asks a question about formatting, I just say, Go look it up in The Hollywood Standard ! End of story.
Kris Young, lecturer, UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television, screenwriter ( Teen Angel )
Frankly, all the stuff you learn from Field or McKee wont get you anywhere if you dont know the stuff in Rileys book. Because if your screenplay doesnt read professionally, it wont be read by the professionals. This is the only writing book I still keep near my computer.
Brian Davidson, writer-producer ( CSI: Miami )
Riley has succeeded in an extremely difficult task: he has produced a guide to screenplay formatting which is both entertaining to read and exceptionally thorough. Rileys clear style, authoritative voice and well-written examples make this book far more enjoyable than any formatting guide has a right to be. This is the best guide to script formatting ever, and it is an indispensable tool for every writer working in Hollywood.
Wout Thielemans, Screentalk
New media may be changing the rules for how stories are delivered to audiences, but the rules for how they're written (and formatted) haven't changed and there's no better book than the one you're holding to teach them to you. In The Hollywood Standard , Christopher Riley delivers those rules with winsome authority.
Jacob Roman, writer ( SEAL Team ), New Media Writer/Producer, Internet web series ID
For years, while Christopher Riley was on the other side of the lot in the script department, standardizing feature formatting, we on the television side relished the lack of reliable formatting information. As we waded through piles and piles of Warner Bros. Workshop submissions, the look of a script was one of our secret short-cuts for separating the rookies from the pros. Now people will know both how and why television scripts are formatted. Thanks a lot, Chris...
Jack Gilbert, Warner Bros. Workshop
A key insider Hollywood truism is that a screenplay is half-sold by presentation alone. Christopher Rileys The Hollywood Standard presents both the industry standard guidelines and the true insider secret that your script sells by the way your script reads, how it lays on the page. Riley shows how scripts come alive on the page. Mastering these skills will communicate the movie you envision, and separate you from the pack. His expertise is a gift to all screenwriters and filmmakers.
Bobette Buster, adjunct professor, USC School of Cinematic Arts, international speaker on
screenwriting
The Hollywood Standard is the last and final word on screenplay format. Much more definitive and thorough than any other script format book on the market. Highly recommended!
John Dart & Jeff Swanson, StoryPros.com
The Hollywood Standard is an invaluable resource to both amateur and professional screenwriters. Rileys book demystifies script formatting clearly and concisely. I require all my screenwriting students to buy The Hollywood Standard , and it sits on my reference shelf next to Robert McKees Story and Bartletts Familiar Quotations .
Thomas Parham, Ph. D., Professor of Communication & Media Studies, Palm Beach Atlantic
University, writer, JAG
There are thousands of rules to formatting a script according to professional Hollywood standards. Fortunately, you only need to remember one: read Christopher Riley's book!
Nathan Scoggins, Writer-Director ( The Least of These )
As a script consultant, Ive used The Hollywood Standard and its always the first book I give to clients. If this book were a script, and this were my coverage, Id give it a RECOMMEND.
Chris Covell, script consultant, TheScriptReader
The Hollywood Standard sits next to my computer and accompanies me through every script I write. Whatever formatting conundrum I find myself in, I know The Hollywood Standard will provide the answer.
