message: Yes but what is a treatment, i heard someone say it has something to do with the script like a brief, you need to have this up here on wiki. ---Halaqah 22:18, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

message: "A script for a television program is sometimes called a teleplay." Can someone please clarify when? --Bensin 15:03, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Teleplay is the technical term for a TV show's script. So, always, really. Although "script" is probably used more commonly. Blcfilm 08:33, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

message: The sample page image has a couple of formatting errors. It contains a CONTINUED:, which applies only for scripts with numbered scenes (ie, shooting scripts), and it uses a (CONT'D) indicator for consecutive dialogue. (CONT'D) beside the cue is for dialogue split across pages; (continuing) is used for consecutive dialogue spoken by a single character. TimSheehan 04:59, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: You're right that it's wrong, but (continuing) is no longer in fashion either. The current standard for same-page continued speech is no parenthetical. Split-page parentheticals are on their way out, too. Blcfilm 07:01, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

text: The sample page also incorrectly uses O.S. Offscreen (O.S.) is used when the character is in the scene but off camera. V.O. (voiceover) is for voiceovers, phone conversations, recorded playback, and other electronic additions to the track. The character in the script is playing a tape recording; hence, that's a V.O., not an O.S.71.175.28.121 (talk) 03:06, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

message: Added here in 2008 by a one-edit IP address located in Italy. Same as part of this page: Screenplay Coverage © 2008 Script-Fix, LLC. Removed today, then restored. The dates don't clarify the matter, but the fact that the text is so polished makes me think it was copied. Other thoughts?   Will Beback  talk   07:58, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

message: This article needs to explain the difference between a screenplay, a treatment and scene cards.

thread_title: Difference vs treatment 

message: I wonder if in modern times spreadsheet calculation software like excel is used for screenplays or even storyboards? nothing seems to be more useful for calculating time of a movie. the various sorts of content, including pictures, could easily be accomodated in columns while each take with its times (durations and their sums in two columns, scene-numbering in a third, maybe budgeting in a fourth) would be one line (or two: slug line and the rest on a second line). the consequences of changes could easily be seen and reacted to. --HilmarHansWerner (talk) 23:24, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
