Addition of the influential screenplay


























As part of your evaluation, you are to discuss other CINEMATIC INFLUENCES that have informed the production. You should also find a screenplay and show how an element of the writing has been an influence on your work. Use screenshots of your screenplay and another example side by side to illustrate your points.

You can search for screenplays HERE and HERE

A screenwriting learner may reference a script influence like so:


The screenplay for La La Land had a big influence on my film. Damien Chazelle's introduction to Mia garners instant audience empathy in his description: ' Mia, 27. Six years of 'no' in L.A. have toughened her, but she's still a dreamer. Fast, fiery, full of energy.'. It was my intention that the way I introduced Jill to the narrative would also create a sympathetic connection with the audience. I used the codes of a typical 'everywoman' by describing her as a 'hen-pecked single mother of two who, in her spare time, lived on a diet of boxsets and loosely based Bridget Jones fantasies'.
