Very little has been written about the contribution that script editors make to the industry, yet they are an essential part of film and television script development. The Art of Script Editing provides a comprehensive overview of this vital role, examining its responsibilities and functions during all stages of the development process, both in film and television. Detailing the nuts and bolts of the job, it looks at what's required and expected, how script editors assess a script, their approach to working with writers and producers, and their input during rewrites and pre-production, and up to a project's completion.

Industry Reviews

"A clear, insightful and sensitive look at the work of script editors and screen writers. The book never preaches and instead brilliantly explores the multiple approaches and individuality needed to write a great script and the empathy and inspiration script editors bring to the process. One of the only books I've read on the subject that captures the truly collaborative nature of film writing." --Hossein Amini, writer of Drive and writer and director of The Two Faces of January.
