How do you convert a story into a script?

Answer 1

First, protect your work product by copyrighting it.

Then, you can pitch your story to producers, actors, agents, managers and others who can help you finance the film.

You can also enter it in contests.

Answer 2

Unless you're crafting a story for a 'mock-u-mentary' -- a fake documentary, a rough outline of the story you want to tell may be all the producer needs in order to begin filming.

Since film is really a director's medium, the director then chooses what to film, how to conduct interviews, how to get truthful elements on film that push his/her story forward.

The final cut of the film, and the essentially fine-tuning of the story takes place in the editing bay.

Answer 3

The first step is to write out the synopsis of the story in a 'treatment'. This writing describes the characters and the action -- the plot.

Then, a script writer can use the treatment as a reference and write a script to fit into the genre and format expected for the script.

Answer 4

You have to go to a movie producer then see f they will make your movie into a film. They read your book tthen see if it is good enough if t isn't well bad luck but if it is well done!
