Page 2 of 2 Of course, for it bases not on visuality but mostly on inner dialogues and verbally constructed and thereby interpreted situations, a novel is different from a screenplay. However, in literature you actually find the stuff that has always interested or occupied people: murder, envy, love, war, fear, sensations, politics, sex, emotions, robbery, conflict, etc. Another field of sources consists in mythologies, religions and psychologies that tell you about the human being and its relations to others. The best is to take in all of that in order to view upon the own script from as many different angles as possible. But if you do not intend to build up an own world like Tolkien, then stick to the news and keep up to date with what is going on in the world and in the film scene. In the end this is the only thing your screenplay can be based on: your first and second hand everyday experiences. Nevertheless, these can be fundamentally changed by the lecture of any kind of ‘screenwriting guru’.              |
