These various scripts may vary in size and completeness according to whom they are give and the director is often able to make any changes they see necessary based on the terms of the contract with the original screenwriter. In addition, there are several different kinds of scripts: ‘reading copies’ that are distributed to producers and agents and are usually printed on both sides of the page and sometimes professionally bound ‘director copies’ that are reduced in size to make a small, easily to carry book used by the director or production crew during shooting ‘producer copies’ for producers to use when hiring actors plus copies given to actors, crew and anyone else who requires one.
A light card stock cover and back page are added to strengthen the script as the screenplay is often handled by several people. To make flipping through the pages easier a British script may be bound by a single brad at the top left-hand side of the page. In Great Britain the norm is double-hole-punched A4 paper which is slightly taller and narrower than the North American letter size of 8.5×11. Is “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them: The Original Screenplay” really the Original Screenplay? Or is the widely available version actually “The Original Screenplay 2.0”?Įvery film has a screenplay or script.
