Screenwriting : Subtext... by Alyn Darnay

(Alyn on Screenwriting) It's a shame that so many writers have no concept of the importance of Subtext to their screenplay.

Let me be clear on this, Subtext is the meaning beneath the text. That which is hidden but can be perceived by the viewer. It's the story within the story. That which endows your script with greater depth, keeps viewers connected to the material, and implies to the industry at large that your work is at a certain professional level.(Watch for Alyn's Professional Screenwriting Workshop, coming later this month) To Order Alyn's best selling screenwriting book, go to ScriptWritingBook.com
