Hundreds of books claim they can teach you how to write the perfect script. Listen up: your script doesn't need to be perfect to sell! It does need to include nine standard story elements. Producer, writer and story analyst Donna Michelle Anderson, best known in the industry as "DMA," has been hammering this point home for more than a decade at UCLA Extension Writers Program, film fests, production companies and more, and as the founder and screenwriting instructor of the Movie in a Box one-day filmmaking seminars. With this concise guide, DMA brings you the simplest steps to unifying a theme, character arc and spine, then streamlining those elements into a sellable script.

Succinct no nonsense, jab it in your face reality of what elements have to be addressed if the writer is to have a chance of success… I address the issues you discuss, but your explanation and command delivers much more impact… Thanks.

My friends and I are still buzzed from the experience. It was exactly what we needed." -David A., Producer "I'm a writer and have taken a lot of screenwriting structure lectures and read every book, so I didn't expect to hear anything new that day.

GREAT! It was GREAT! It was a "working" session - it was so inspiring…the minds were actually working in the room! It was GREAT!

It was GREAT!" -Sheila H., Author "I'd like to thank you for the wonderful seminar that you did... It was probably the most informative seminar I've been to about the industry.
