[quote author=toluvision post=126912286][/quote]This is a constructive criticism: Your sample screenplay contains some flaws. Firstly, you did not introduce your characters.

Secondly, you shouldn't be using present continuous tenses in screenplays.

There are other flaws, but let me stop here. If you perfect your skills, you will make a great screenplay writer. Cheers!

Thanks for the observation but I also need to correct and
inform you that Scripts are written in the present continuous tense because it allows the audience to listen and see actors' actions as they take place. Different from novels and other forms of writing that use any tense or flow, the script uses the present tense and the present continuous tense as they show ongoing actions in a given statement within a script that will continue to occur after the statement is mentioned, i.e., the action remains continuous in the present and in the near future. In other words, the present continuous tense allows the actor to continue with the action they are presented with in the script..

As for not introducing the characters , he/she only asked for samples and those were just screenshots.

Thanks once again.

[I'm sorry, all this shows is proper script format which any screen writing app can give you. Even the dialogue is generic. Wanted to see a 10-15 page sample that actually shows xter dev, dialogue technique, at least the indication of a plot and a xter story arc, etc. This won't do, I'm afraid. Not if you serious about your post. Thanks anyway

[Good observations, except for the present continuous tense thing. A film unfolds in the 'Now' so you do write in present continuous tense.
