Resources for Screenwriters

Written by Sophie McVeigh

As with any career or creative pursuit that’s worth following, the internet is overflowing with websites related to the art of screenwriting. Some are indispensable and some are, well … you’re never getting those 15 seconds back. To help you navigate through the swamp, we quizzed students, past and present, to find the sites with a permanent place on their bookmark bar.

Reading scripts

All writers are readers, as they say, and that’s just as true for screenplays as it is for novelists. There is simply no better way to learn about the craft than by studying the greats, and the brilliant thing is, if a screenplay is well-written, you’ll romp through it in about the same time as it takes to watch the movie. Below are the web’s best resources for finding free screenplays.

The Internet Movie Script Database claims to be ‘the web’s largest movies script resource’ and I have no reason not believe them. With everything from Evil Dead to La La Land, avoid the misleading ‘download here!’ banners and scroll down to the tiny ‘read script’ blue hyperlink.

http://www.imsdb.com/

Drew’s Script–o–Rama has been a labour of love since 1995 (‘Val Kilmer used to be Batman back then!’), and although it’s a little bit more like digging through a vintage store, there are obscure gems to be found if you’re willing to persevere. The selection is huge, including retro TV scripts that you won’t find anywhere else. Bewitched, anyone?  

http://www.script-o-rama.com/

Simply Scripts is extremely easy to navigate, not plagued by ads and includes bang up to date TV scripts such as Glow and The Handmaid’s Tale, as well as anime, radio, musicals and unproduced scripts, for when you feel like practising those report writing skills.

Podcasts

Live at the end of the Hammersmith and City line? Just joined a gym but can’t motivate yourself to go? What better way to while away the time than by listening to one of these inspiring, informative and entertaining podcasts, collected together by Scrip Reader Pro? My personal favourite is Jeff Goldsmith’s Q&A, featuring some of the world’s best screenwriters. His passion for the subject is infectious, and they’re also a great place to mine for quotes for the Work and Research Journal.

Screenwriting Competitions

There’s nothing like getting through to the final stages or even winning something to boost your confidence. Don’t be put off by the large number of applicants - after all, you made it into one of the world’s best film schools, and our recent graduates are currently shortlisted in some of the world’s most prestigious screenplay competitions.

Movie Bytes provides a comprehensive list of screenwriting competitions from all over the world, which you can be search by genre, closing date, rating or entry fee.

https://www.moviebytes.com/index.cfm

If you want to jump straight in at the deep end, Hollywood film executive Stephanie Palmer, in her blog Good in a Room, cuts the wheat from the chaff with her list of the only 13 screenwriting competitions worth entering. They’re mostly American, obvs, but you don’t have to be to enter them.

Opportunities

The BBC Writers’ Room provides links to schemes, workshops and opportunities for writers all over the country, such as the Caroline Aherne Bursary for Funny Northern Women and the Gaelic Comedy Sketch Writing Initiative. If you are neither Gaelic, Northern nor funny, fear not – the BBC Script Room also accepts submissions for drama scripts at various points throughout the year, and the site includes a wealth of advice and interviews with industry professionals.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/writersroom/

In a similar vein, Channel 4’s 4Talent site provides links to training and graduate schemes such as 4Screenwriting, while BAFTA, Creative England and Creative Skillset’s websites all provide a huge number of links to careers opportunities, competitions and development schemes for those wanting to get into the Film and Television Industries. Talent Lab is a scheme for BAME (Black, Asian and Ethnic Minority) creatives working in film and multiple other platforms, aimed at ‘discovering new stories from Britain’s emerging multicultural talent.’

Networking

As we all know, working in film and TV is about making connections and finding the right people to collaborate with, which is why, along with the relationships you’re forging at LFS, it’s important to get out there and start meeting people in the industry.

Raindance’s Boozin’ and Schmoozin’ is a laid-back affair for those new to this networking lark who might need a small wine to take the edge off. Monthly events, for both film makers and film lovers, are £5 on the door or free to Raindance members.

https://www.raindance.org/courses/boozin-n-schmoozin-networking/

Women in Film and Television UK, mindful of the fact that women make up a measly 13% of writers in film and TV and only half that when it comes to directing, organise a range of networking events throughout the year, as well as workshops, seminars, panel discussions and screenings, all aimed at getting more women into the industry.

https://wftv.org.uk/events/

And if you already have some professional credits to your name, you can apply to join Bafta Crew, a ‘professional network and masterclass programme connecting emerging talent to BAFTA-winners and nominees’.

Made.com expands across Europe

Philippe Chainieux, chief executive of Made.com

Made.com will sell to more European markets in 2019, while expanding its showroom space as it looks to offer millennials the ‘brand experience’ they want. The furniture brand, which this week reported record results for 2018, says way it sells appeals to the digital natives who, it forecasts, are set to make up more than half of consumers by 2022.

  Made.com, ranked Top350 in IRUK Top500 research, says that in 2019, Europe will overtake the UK as its biggest market. Currently it sells in nine markets in Europe and will add a further four this year. “Made.com’s ambition is to create the leading design brand for the digital generation across Europe,” said Philippe Chainieux, chief executive of Made.com. “The digital millennial audience will account for 50% of consumers by 2022 and as such, it is important to craft an interaction where they are, meeting their expectations and building a design experience around them.”

  Made is trebling the size of its London showroom to more than 1,100m2 and is opening another in Hamburg, Germany in the spring. It says it will open new showrooms in the European markets where it operates.

  The business this week published results showing revenues of £173m in 2018, up by 37%, year-on-year. UK revenues grew by 34% to hit £100m for the first time. The market accounted for 58% of turnover, while international revenues grew by 40% to £73m, after October’s launch into Spain.

  Chainieux said: “We had a strong year in 2018, at a time when the retail sector is going through unprecedented change. Over the past 18 months, we have seen an accelerating trend towards customers shopping online of big ticket items, driven by a massive shift in consumer behaviours and the rise of the digital generation.”

  Jo Jackson, chief creative officer at the furniture brand, said: “For us being a digitally-native brand, online will always come first, but we know a human connection with the brand can be a valuable midpoint in our customer journey. We are doing something different with our physical spaces. They are not shops, they are brand experiences. From being able to touch and feel fabrics, discovering new trends, getting personal style advice, attending a workshop with one of our independent designers, or even playing with new tech we are testing out in the space, these are all seps to build a deeper and a more personalised relationship with our customer.”

  Made’s innovative approaches to selling include crowd-sourcing and crowd-funding design ideas through its TalentLAB platform that it says will launch 200 new designers a year. It commits to put into production designs that receive enough public support. Its overarching strategy is to cut out the middleman in furniture production, working directly with manufacturers and craftspeople around the world to promise customers unique furniture and homewares at an affordable price.

Today it employs more than 500 people in the UK, Europe and Asia.

Capeline Table Lamp

This wonderful Capeline's a linen lamp with a flat shade – this means light's dispersed wide and evenly. In neutral white, it'll look great on any table, and catch every eye. The intriguing shape is inspired by hats. Capeline was designed by Julien Fuentes, as part of TalentLAB, our crowdfunding platform created by Made to support upcoming designers.

Would look great with a decorative wall mirror. To view more designer lamps see
