What Is And What Should A Good Script Have?

The script is a written text conceived from its origin to transform itself into images that make a linear progression of incidents, episodes and events, presents a succession of events that tell a story visually, audibly or both, the script indicates what is going to be done and said in a certain place and time.
The script It can be written in a narrative way, that is, describing facts, characters and situations without being represented, this is the case of novels, stories and literature in general; Or, it can be written as a dramaturgy, which is everything that can be represented, such is the case of comedy, parody, farce and the mixture of genres.
Everything script It must strictly contain characters, actions, places and times, but, according to what was said by one of the most famous scholars of screenwriting, Robert mckee, a good script it has many more things.
A good script he is the one who proposes something new, does not copy or handle stereotypes, on the contrary, he shows archetypes, that is, he tells universal experiences in a unique way.

A good script it is based on the talent to create and not on the ability to follow established formulas; a good script He is one who saves words but not situations, that is, he finds a way to say a lot with a few words.
A good script he always seeks success, although he cannot always guarantee it; a good script it is done considering the public and must be original in both content and form.
Last but not least, a good script It must be a finished work, revised and modified by the author, until he considers that everything is correct and complete.
There are endless formats to write a script, and there will always be one that works better than another depending on what we want to write and the medium to which it is directed (film, radio, theater or television), although the truly important thing about a script it is the story that is told, Robert McKee well says that “it is not only what is told, but also how it is told”.
