ScriptTip - Keep your character descriptions short
April 27, 2008 – 9:01 am by Killer Screenplay GuyWhen describing the character on the page, give us just enough to take a memorable mental snapshot of him, and then move on. We just need enough to have the mental image of him; we don’t need his life story or two lines of description. Don’t bog down your story. Keep it moving. Keep descriptions brief and poppin’.
