BPS 095: The Hollywood Screenplay Formatting Standard with Chris Riley

Have you ever wondered how to format your screenplay so Hollywood
would take you seriously as a screenwriter before they even read
your script? Today's guest Christopher Riley can definitely help
you with this.

Christopher Riley is an American screenwriter whose first film,
After The Truth, a multiple-award-winning courtroom thriller,
sparked international controversy when it was released in Germany
in 1999. Other credits include 25 To Life, a dramatic thriller
written for Touchstone Pictures, The Other White House, a political
thriller written for Sean Connery’s Fountainbridge Films, Aces, an
action-adventure written for Paramount Pictures and Emmy-winning
producer Robert Cort, and a screen adaptation of the book Actual
Innocence for Mandalay Television Pictures and the Fox television
network.

A veteran of the Warner Bros. script department, Riley is the
author of the screenwriting reference The Hollywood Standard: The
Complete and Authoritative Guide to Script Format and Style, now in
its second edition with a foreword by Antwone Fisher.
