This week on Binky’s Blog, Binky shows us how to write a proper script using nothing more than Microsoft Word. A video accompanies this blog.
“You don’t need an expensive or special software to write a proper script with the proper font and formatting. Of course, some of these software format the script for you, so you save time, but you can easily format it while proof reading it and you don’t spend that much more time than necessary on formatting it. It also saves you money as it can easily be done with Microsoft Word.
Font. The most commonly used font is COURRIER. Not Courrier New, there’s a difference. I used to gets mixed up with the two at first. Size 12. A good trick is to keep your alignment to LEFT, select COURRIER 12 and write out your rough/working script from here.”

Binky Prod has an all new page: Binky’s Blog! This week Binky talks about the difference and her preferences between writing a screenplay and a novel.
“I’ve been asked several times how different it is to write a screenplay to writing a story in novel format and how do I know, when inspiration hits, if it’s going to be a script or a story. The same could be asked about a screenplay, will it be a feature film, web series, short? In my opinion, there is no predetermined formula for knowing these things, I usually just know, however there is some thinking behind it all.”
