IN THIS ISSUE:   Featured Product: The Art of Adaptation: Turning Fact and Fiction Into Film by Linda Seger Movie Contest: RED RIDING HOOD New Class: Producing Your Acting Career with Catherine Lough Haggquist Local Movies: Pacific Cinematheque March Spotlight FEATURED PRODUCT:   The Art of Adaptation: Turning Fact and Fiction Into Film by Linda Seger Adaptations have long been a mainstay of Hollywood and the television networks. Indeed, most Academy Award- and Emmy Award-winning films have been adaptations of novels, plays, or true-life stories. Linda Seger, author of several acclaimed books on scriptwriting, offers a comprehensive handbook for screenwriters, producers, and directors who want to successfully transform fictional or factual material into film. Seger tells how to analyze source material to understand why some of it resists adaptation. She then gives practical methods for translating story, characters, themes, and style into film. A final section details essential information on how to adapt material and how to protect oneself legally.
