What are 3 key things that this article says are important about formatting an AV script?
While a regular script follows strict guidelines, an AV script follows less guidelines and may be adjusted accordingly depending on your clients preference. It should still follow the standard font and margins for script writing. Margins should be one inch on each edge of the page. The font should be Courier New 12 point, a serif, fixed-width font of 10 characters per inch. Rather than just containing the dialogue, action, change of location, and transition of a scene, an AV script has two columns. The column on the left is used for the video, and the right is used for the audio. The video column contains descriptions of the shot (shot size, subject, action/blocking notes, camera movements, visual effects) The audio column should contain the characters, dialogue, music, and sfx. Dialogue should be written with regular grammar and capitalization, but anything else should be written in all caps.
