You vs. yourself -- Act 2. You vs. the page -- Act 3. You vs. the world. 520 "A sharp, funny book about comedy screenwriting from a successful screenwriter that uses recent - as in this century - movies you've actually seen as examples. Greg DePaul (Screenwriter, Bride Wars, Saving Silverman) has sold scripts to Miramax, Fox, Disney, New Line, Sony, MGM and Village Roadshow. He's worked with comedy stars like Jack Black, Kate Hudson, Jason Biggs and Amanda Peet. Now Greg takes everything he knows about writing comedy and breaking into the biz, tosses it into a blender and serves up this tasty, fat-free smoothie of a book that's easy to read, brutally honest, and straight from the heart ... of Hollywood. Bring the Funny is chock full o' tricks, strategies and insider terms used by successful comedy screenwriters, including: - Comic Justice Wrylies Genre- Bending Shadow Characters; - The BDR's The Two-Hander The Conceit Comedic Escalation; - Gapping A.I.C. Fish Outta Water The Idea Factory; - Really Important Comedy Screenwriting Rules Number 99 and 100. If you're looking to write funnier and better screenplays, you want this book. But if you're ready to pack up your car, drive out to L.A., and dive into a career as a comedy screenwriter, you need this book. Now. Buy it, jam it into your pocket, and hit the gas. Greg's got your back"--Provided by publisher 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed August 30, 2016). 590 O'Reilly|bO'Reilly Online Learning: Academic/Public Library Edition 650 0 Comedy films|xAuthorship. 650 0 Motion picture authorship|xVocational guidance. 650 6 Films comiques|xArt d'écrire. 650 6 Cinéma|xArt d'écrire|xOrientation professionnelle. 650 7 Comedy films|xAuthorship|2fast 650 7 Motion picture authorship|xVocational guidance|2fast 776 08 |iPrint version:|aDe Paul, Greg.|tBring the funny.|dNew York : Routledge, 2017|z9781138929265|z1138929263|w(DLC) 2015050591|w(OCoLC)935674903 856 40 |uhttps://ezproxy.naperville-lib.org/login?url=https:// learning.oreilly.com/library/view/~/9781317399810/?ar 938 Askews and Holts Library Services|bASKH|nAH29997865 938 Askews and Holts Library Services|bASKH|nAH29997866 938 Bloomsbury Publishing|bBLOO|nBP0065950490 938 EBL - Ebook Library|bEBLB|nEBL4595165 938 EBSCOhost|bEBSC|n1286834 938 ProQuest MyiLibrary Digital eBook Collection|bIDEB |ncis32812450 938 Taylor & Francis|bTAFR|n9781315681320 938 YBP Library Services|bYANK|n13078823 938 YBP Library Services|bYANK|n13955300 994 92|bJFN
