R.T Bowersox Screenplays Volume 1
Reading real scripts is essential for beginning screenwriters because it reveals how professional writers structure scenes, develop characters, and build tension. By studying real examples, you gain insight into industry standards, formatting, and storytelling techniques that bring scripts to life on screen. It's a powerful way to learn what works—and why!
Includes 3 Award Winning Scripts by our instructor Bob Bowersox:
Beneath the Badge: A young homicide detective with an extraordinary artistic talent has hidden his abilities from his colleagues and his Irish, by-the-book, police captain father for fear of appearing less the man they expect him to be. But his two worlds collide when a series of deadly home invasions brings him face to face with the beautiful daughter of a murdered art gallery owner who discovers his secret.
