Customer Reviews

Nice Resource
I think this is a great resource for emerging writers. Very simple and effective tool. Josh Clark The Bare Bones Book of Screenwriting

Great Product
Excellent addition to the book. Adds a step-by-step process to the mechanics discussed in Field's handbook. In additions answers the question, "What the heck does Syd Field look like?" Professionally produced, well worth the money.

NO WAY MAN
Syd Field is probably the fakest person in the industry! As far as I know he's never actually written a produced screenplay. I'm represented by a William Morris agent and Syd Field's lessons and references got me laughed at when I first approached getting an agent.

Buy The Screenwriter's Bible by David Trottier. He actually has his name on several products in the business and is also the book that my agent introduced me to.
