An original screenplay is not adapted from a book, a short story, a play, a graphic novel or a prior movie. The screenplay is developed from your fresh, compelling story idea that can be easily explained to the producers who may wish to buy it. From that idea, writing a screenplay requires filling 90 to 120 blank pages with engaging characters, plots and dialogue. Many beginning writers want to rush to the writing, but creating a good original screenplay takes preparation as well as execution.
Most stories have easily defined beginnings, middles and ends, but in the screenwriting world, this is known as the three-act structure. The three-act structure is easy to understand, but developing it in a screenplay can take a lot of work and editing. Formulating a solid three-act structure will help with the success of your script in Hollywood.
