4.0 out of 5 stars
Good comprehensive text for brodcast scriptwriting,
By
This review is from: Broadcast Writing: Principles and Practices (Hardcover)
There are many good texts in newswriting out there, but few which are as comprehensive in all areas of media as this one. I teach a course in broadcast scriptwriting at a community college with the intention of trying to cover as many different formats as possible, e.g., newswriting, commercials, talk-interview, documentary, dramatic narrative, informational, etc. for both radio,TV and film. This text covers all of these and offers both solid theoretical background as well as plenty of real world examples. I do recommend substituting the dramatic narrative chapter with a specialized text for screenplay writing, but it covers the basics. My only real complaint is that it is starting to get a bit out of date. But it is still the best I've come across and better than the Robert Hilliard text, in my opinion.
