Zusatztext With additional film analyses and a new section on television series, the 2nd edition of Screenwriting remains a highly relevant guide for writers to manage the macro and micro structure necessary for successful screenplays. Gulino’s addition of television illuminates how sequencing is as viable a tool for screens of all sizes. This extension of Frank Daniel’s fundamental pedagogy will continue to be central in my work with emerging writers.
