INTRODUCE ONLY ONE NEW CHARACTER per paragraph. USE COMPLETE SENTENCES (with rare exceptions for emphasis or dialogue). BEGIN EVERY SCENE WITH ACTION AND DESCRIPTION – never dialogue. Make no mention of the CREDIT SEQUENCE or the MUSICAL SCORE. OMIT ALL SHOOTING SCRIPT DEVICES, such as scene numbers, sound effects written in upper case, or the word “continued” at the top or bottom of each page. USE FORMATTING SOFTWARE such as Movie Magic Screenwriter or Final Draft to make certain all margins, spacing and capitalization are correct. Write only the title, your name, and your (or your agent’s) address and phone number on the TITLE PAGE of your screenplay – no date, copyright or WGA registration information. 
INCLUDE THE TITLE, YOUR NAME and PAGE NUMBERS on all scripts, outlines, and anything else you submit.
Be absolutely certain your script meets these criteria before submitting it to anyone for consideration (or for coaching):
