9.If you want to write a movie script (脚本) yourself but don't know how,what would you do?The following can be of some help to you.
There are only three parts necessary in a script:the Scene Heading,the Visual Exposition and the Dialogue.
The Scene Heading begins with either"EXT."or"INT.".EXT.shows that the scene takes place outdoors,while INT.is used when the scene takes place indoors,for example,inside a room.After that,the exact place of the scene is given,such as"HOTEL ROOM."The last thing that must be mentioned is whether it is NIGHT or DAY.
The Visual Exposition is a description of the action or movement that takes place on the screen,and should include ONLY what you would see if you were watching the screen.For the first time,and only the first time,a character appears in the script,the name is capitalized (大写),and should be followed by a short description that includes age and build,for example:
The Dialogue follows the Visual Exposition.Each character's name should be capitalized in the center of the page,followed by the words that are to be spoken on the next line.Do not include any description of feelings before the lines of dialogue.If you consider it necessary to show a character gives a line in a certain way,for example,"angrily,"this should be included in the Visual Exposition above the lines,such as,"Cynthia's face shows her anger."But remember,Visual Exposition should ONLY show action we can see.
