2.  A script is a document that outlines every aural, visual, behavioral, and lingual
element required to tell a story. writers may be brought in or you may be asked to
re-write the entire thing. That's life, in the world of screenwriting. But because so
many people are involved in the making of a film, a script must conform to
standards that all involved parties understand and thus has a specific format or
layout, margins, notation, and other conventions. This document is intended to
overview the typical elements used screenplay writing.

3.  Scene Heading, also known as a Slugline. Scene Headings mark any change in
location or time in your screenplay. Every scene begins with one.
 Action is the catchall element of screenwriting. It's where you tell the reader what
happens on the screen.
 Character elements are in UPPERCASE and are followed immediately by
Dialogue.
 Parenthetical elements are wrapped in parentheses, and follow a Character or
Dialogue element.
 Transitions are used to indicate special information about how one scene
transitions to another. They are not as common as they once were, but they are
still useful.
