In the journey from adapting a novel into a movie screenplay, there are essential intermediate steps that pave the way for success. One such critical step is the transition from coverage, which provides an initial analysis of the source material, to the film treatment.
This transition is not only a natural progression but also serves as a pivotal moment in the adaptation process. Once coverage is complete and the decision to proceed with an adaptation is made, the next logical step is the creation of the film treatment. A treatment is a detailed document that outlines how the source material will be translated into a screenplay. It serves as a bridge between the novel and the final script, providing a roadmap for the adaptation process. The film treatment is the crucial intermediary step that takes the adaptation from the conceptual phase to the concrete phase of writing the screenplay.
The screenplay is the common ground on which producers, directors, actors, and production teams working on the movie will collaborate from start to finish, and it serves as a roadmap for them in terms of what will be seen on the big screen. The production of the Movie Script coverage is to prepare for the screenplay to be produced.
