		One of the key - and most challenging - aspects of screenwriting is the use of visual aids between the lines of dialogue.
		The descriptions that are threaded throughout character voices are the screenwriter's prose-built camera within the script.

	Screenwriter
		Screenwriters, scenarists, or script writers, are authors who write the screenplays from which movies and television programs are made.
		Many of them also work as "script doctors," attempting to change scripts to suit directors or studios; for instance, studio management may have a complaint that the motivations of the characters are unclear or that the dialogue is weak.
		Most professional screenwriters are unionized and are represented by organizations such as the Writers Guild of America.

	UGO Screenwriter's Voice - Interview -- James Gunn
		In the screenwriting world, it's not often that a writer gets to see two of his or her projects on the big screen at the same time.
		Don't be a screenwriter in order to look good, but be willing to look like an idiot in order to write screenplays.
		And, because of that, screenwriting is a necessarily painful profession, where you have to watch parts of yourself being ripped apart.

	Citizen Screenwriter
		Since creating boredom is the first sin of screenwriting, a screenwriter's world is value-laden: there are good guys and bad guys, there are points of reference by which the audience can choose sides, usually hoping that the main character ("good") reaches a goal by defeating opposing forces that often are presented by the antagonist ("bad").
		The screenwriter's world and the world at large are connected by a two-way street, each informing the other.
		Screenwriters inform the world at large, whether they intend to or not, whether they do so consciously or not.

		At issue is whether it’s a good idea for the screenwriter to specify ethnicities for various characters.
		I find it amusing that Craig Mazin feels he is such an authority on screenwriting when his credits are as limited as they are.
		And that was very sloppy guess-making on your part, because a little Googling would reveal I’m a frequent advisor to Sundance and other screenwriting labs, each of which has the goal of increasing the diversity of voices in film.
